Tulane University has changed since Katrina, and largelyFinance
Tulane University has changed since Katrina, and largely for the better. Although students have always been bright and hard-working (and partiers), recent incoming students overall have somehow raised the bar even higher. They have started to form a positive link to the city, in a permanent way. Before 2005, I'm not sure I would have stayed in the city. Post-Katrina, I and MANY of my friends have found they just could not stay away from New Orleans. I have positive memories of Tulane. I have incredibly fond memories of New Orleans. This city gets into you and becomes your home. Tulane made it happen for me, and I am forever grateful.

Question
Tulane University has a good name and itPsychology
Tulane University has a good name and it rides on that. The majority of its appeal is to prospective students and once they have you the amount of time and effort they put into keeping you happy is next to none. The advisers change frequently, the longest I had the same one was for two semesters. The housing situation is terrible and only seems to be getting worse. It takes too long to get anything fixed in your room and the cooling system regularly breaks. Everything you try to get done you personally have to take your paperwork from department to department crossing the campus to make sure all the appropriate people sign and approve anything. This is after you are paying $45,000+ to be here. You might think that I am just cynical about my bad experience but ,many of my friends had the same problems. I am not saying that I did not enjoy my time and learn a lot but I did resent everything that the university did for us.

Question
I graduated in 1999Finance
I graduated in 1999 with a BSM in Finance. Overall, I regret attending Tulane. The university's name does not hold weight when looking for a job. The Career Development Center at Tulane is very poor and not helpful.
