When I got accpeted into UT I was estatic. But that pipedream soon faded after reality set in. The only thing that pushes this school and its students forward is its football team, and I must admit, as a highschool student I was caught up in the fanatisicsm. The students do nothing other than go to the played out 6th street and mooch off of thier parents. I have never seen a collection of lazier people in my life. The academics at UT are decent, but could be better. From what I've seen, most students cant balance a social life and academics in a tandem, most of which falter due to the former. As a minority, I felt exremely out of place! UT advertised itself as diverse, but that is far from the truth! Some teachers I have even come across are blatantly racist. I have made friends at UT, but I consider them out of the norm. Again, most of the students here know nothing oustide of obsesive drinking and living off thier parents. My girlfriend even has her complaints. She attends law school and dislikes it. The professors are mediocre and the students are truely cutthroat. Shes told me horrendous stories. One in particular that sticks out is when an assignment is given in class, some students leave early to the library to hide a required book, or even rip out required items neccesary for the assignment. All in the name of that Number 1 class rank. If I had the oppurtunity to go back and choose another university I would.
