Roger Williams has to be the biggest jokeQuite BrightAccounting
Roger Williams has to be the biggest joke of a school. I was a great person throughout my life. In high school I was on national honor society and was an honor role student. My 1 year at RWU was good because of the friends I made and the knowledge I gained at my classes. But the school made me seem like I'm a horrible person by the countless times I got written for things that didn't make sense. Family and friends all think differently of me because of how I got written up snd it does not reflect the person who I really am. The school straight out ruined my life for a person that had high goals and dreams. Now I will be having problems trying to get jobs for my future because of what the school has done to me. I would highly suggest you never attend this university because it is far too expensive and all they care about is the money. Choose your plan B school because I guarantee it will be the best decision of your life.

Question
I've spent two years at this school asAverageBiology
I've spent two years at this school as a marine biology major and I'm deciding to transfer. This school only cares about what prospective students see, putting our tuition into maintaining perfect landscaping at all times instead of fixing the awful, unstable wifi. There's no excuse for sub-par internet at a private university. The class of 2018 is too big for housing so there were singles turned into doubles and doubles turned into triples, and the dorms are NOT spacious. Not nearly enough sections of required classess are offered, often leaving a long waitlist for select courses. Oh also, public safety and RA's are a cult that will bring you down at any chance they can. The thirst to party is so real for some people that freshmen will persist to get in to parties ruin apartments. And our rate of sexual assault is through the roof.

Question
This is a beautiful school on Mt hopeAverageBiology
This is a beautiful school on Mt hope bay and they will sell you and your families to ensure your money. but what they won't tell you is that it's all a scam. I lived in a cold dark and moldy room my freshman year. nothing was ever done about this btoken and disgusting dorm building. I was treated like a child by most adults I met like I didn't matter. on top of that the average kid at this school is rich, white and dumb. also this year I got another room with mold in the heater and I have to take a shuttle to class which never seems to be on time. lastly public "safety" will he watching your every move and will search your room without a second though. they don't care about your privacy or education. they want the parents money and the glory of having a "pretty school".
