Alright listen here, this will probably be the best advice any one could ever give you about Western. If you are a rich kid who likes to get fucked up all the time, you don't have any morals, you like high school and all the drama that goes a long with it, you like nature… and lots of hills, you enjoy not being cared about, well then western is the school for you. As a freshman I read A LOT of these StudentsReviews, I stayed hopeful though, I thought all the negative comments were a bunch of BS and I was different and I would really like it, I was so wrong… oh and I thought the people behind the negative comments were a bunch of losers who never went out on the weekends. Well here it is, I party, I go out, I have friends, I am very social and this is my take on Western… I hope you find it helpful:School: Alright, first comes first, school is important so I will start off with that. The education is not worth the money. If you are paying for this on your own, you will be shaking your head at the lack of education you are getting. Everyone cheats, no one cares, very few professors care, and there are no opportunities. I am an art major, I have learned a lot, but you take a class and you are like okay now what am I suppose to do with this? And NO ONE is there to help you. As for the pre-reqs I have had to take… I cant even get started. It's just pathetic. Party Life: Moving on to something I know you actually care about, well at least most of you, come on now it's called Wastern. Partying is fun and it's always an adventure. But here is the reality, if you are not wasted like everyone else you will not have a fun time, and I mean WASTED. I am not kidding people here are SLOPPY. It was fun at first, but it gets seriously old and then people start drinking more and more and it's just not cool anymore. Also drugs, people are doing everything and anything. It changes people and it's not pretty. At first I thought Wastern was going to be awesome, I could finally go out and do whatever and my parents are hours away. What did it really get me? A dried up liver, getting puked on… 5 times, cigarette burns not only on my clothes, but scars on my body, getting punched in the face during a fight at a frat, being paranoid about STDs (apparently more then half of western students have an STD) and a bad trip on shrooms. Granted those make great stories, but it gets old fast. You probably wonder where the hell does this girl party? I've gone every where, tried everything. Campus Court, Student Ghetto, Habitat, Frats, The Pointe, Jack Pine, The Arbs, you name it i've been and they are all the same. It. gets. old.Safety: Completely safe during the day besides the fact there is a psycho Jesus worshiper who YELLS at students at the flagpoles everyday. It's scary and i'm not kidding. Night life whole other story, two of my friends have been raped, I have seen WAY too many fights, I know people who have got robbed at gun point personally and then other times it was on the news), it is not safe to walk a lone at night period. But, really you are going to find that at a lot of campuses.The People: Three words: Spoiled Rich Kids. Very few people here are actually down to earth and easy to get a long with. Western is High school with 20-something thousand kids. There are good people, there really are, but they are very hard to find.The Campus: It really is a cool campus, really pretty, well maintained, but very hilly, expect to lose 15 pounds not gain.
