Stealing your money since 1880 and spending it on booze and parties

Introduction
When I started at Emerson, I was so excited and ready to begin what I thought would be a new adventurous and educational life. Instead, I spent 2 years being disrespected, bullied, or ignored by the faculty and staff at Emerson College. For a communications school, there is little to no communication between departments or with students.

Campus Life and Social Life
For me, the social life was Emerson's only saving grace. As long as you stay open, and try to meet as many people as possible, you'll find some amazing friends. Granted, we have more than our fair share of art school douchebags and dumb rich kids, but for the most part everyone can find a place in Emerson's social scene. If you're into partying, Emerson has a thriving drug scene that flourishes under the negligent (and often drunk) eye of President Liebergott. If you're not, then there are plenty of other non-drinking, non-smoking kids for you to hang out with. It just would be quite as rowdy and fun.

The worst part of Emerson College, and campus life, is housing. The accommodations are all pretty excellent, and even the RAs are chill, but the office of Housing and Residence Life is rude, misinformed, and only interested in bleeding money out of the student body. Advertisement
Academics
While some of the professors at Emerson are great, the majority of them really only care about themselves and not their students. Emerson has an absurd attendance policy (miss 3 classes, and you're eligible to fail), and most professors refuse to take family emergencies or serious illness into account. The majority of classes are fairly easy, although they become more in-depth and complicated as go along. The faculty also gets better the longer you wait it out, but there are only so many self-absorbed lectures and rambling speeches you can take before it gets a little old.

Student Body
The student body isn't nearly as diverse as Emerson College seems to think it is. The majority of students are middle to upper-middle class, white, and only a little off their rockers. Unfortunately, the vast and whining minority are rich kids who's producer daddy's bought their way in. However, if you can look past the annoyance of some classmates, overall there are plenty of great people to meet.

In Closing...
Overall, Emerson College is perfect if your family has a lot of money and doesn't mind throwing it away whenever Emerson comes calling. Although the resources available are great, and the community is often fun, the financial burden and the amount of disrespect showed by the college to its students makes it not worthwhile. To add insult to injury, Emerson doesn't spend nearly enough of their money on student clubs or academic departments. Instead, they throw a $40,000 party every year (thats never any fun), and build new, state-of-the-art gymnasiums for the athletic teams that comprise an overwhelmingly small percentage of the student body.
