UB should not have TA's who will notPhilosophy
UB should not have TA's who will not deal with female students. If they cannot deal with better than half the population, they should have no position where they can be an obstacle to women learning. You (UB) have too many of these individuals and I still resent it. My time and money was wasted by these barbarians, I think you know who they are.

Question
Do not come to UB.Accounting
Do not come to UB. I spent four-and-a-half miserable years at this school, studied my ass off to earn decent grades, and still haven't received even an interview, much less any job offers. Only go to this school if you like arrogant professors and classmates, inconsiderate dorm residents, stuck-up bitches, horrible architecture, a lousy football team, and even WORSE job prospects than you had as a high school graduate.

Question
Where do I start?BrightBiology
Where do I start? I guess with the positives which are few and far between. Being a Bio major UB has a very good reputation for biology and has a reportedly good med school. Other than reputation, however, there is nothing good about this school. The classes are a little too big for my liking (expected being a state school). Mostly a commuter school so its kinda tough to make friends. Most of my friends I knew from high school. Also the parking here sucks. Unless you get to campus at an early hour you are not gonna find parking. Its a research univeristy so the professors dont really care about you and are crappy anyway. Most of my classes I've had to teach myself the material. Not much to do around Buffalo except to get drunk. As much as I like to drink it actually gets kinda annoying after a while. Theres more but I dont feel like writing more. If you want a real college experience and not be miserable do not come here. Luckily I am transferring. One year at this place and 12 years in Buffalo has been plenty for me.
