Because I go there. Well, I go to one of the smaller, more suburban campuses, but I've taken a couple classes downtown. The people in residence are mostly pretty lame and your classes will be huge and packed with people you will most likely never meet/talk to. It's just very big and impersonal and you don't get the benefit of getting to know your profs until you're in like 3rd or 4th year, if that. I mean, the location of the campus is a great place, but it's just a huge ass. Plus, the beurocracy of the place will dive you to near insanity, they're huge dicks when it comes to following their odd, and often student unfriendly policies. It's just not a very nice school for undergrads. I'm pretty stoked that I went to a smaller subsect of the school because I still get really good profs and stuff in a much smaller campus.
