Review of Client Services in NTID at RIT

Started off my undergrad engineering education at RIT, but decided to transfer after 2 years. Positives: The academics are absolutely incredible. Wonderful professors, all with real industry experience. Amazing resources, labs, facilities, etc. A very clean, well kept, and safe campus. Co-op program is great and very valueable. Cons: This is not a normal college. You will not get the normal college experience here. Mostly males, mostly unsocial folk, it's very difficult to enjoy your down-time or weekends on campus with the RIT crowd. Henrietta or Rochester do not have much to offer for motivation to leave campus either. There are a couple colleges around, but there isnt too much fraternization between them and RIT. RIT was on a quarter system (not sure if it still is), and our breaks NEVER lined up with any other college, which was a constant dissapointment. I consider myself a pretty average, well-rounded guy. I didnt go to college to party, but I did expect it to have a social aspect to balance out the hard work. This atmosphere does not exist at RIT, it is miserable, boring, cloudy, and cold!
