My first year of university was at University of Rhode Island. Middle of nowhere, though it was a decent enough school, just way overpriced. 30K a year for a state school can eff right off.

Second year was study abroad to University of Reading. I didn't like this university.

I've just transferred to Stony Brook University. So far I'm feeling really great about this place. I actually just met with my advisor today and I've gotten everything sorted, so I'll be graduating on time, thank god. I really like the campus. The price is great for instate (5K a year). The only bad thing is that the commute is 45 minutes, and it's an absolute gas guzzler.

I'm an English and Secondary Education double major.

Oh, and here is my new schedule:

Mon/Wed/Fri :

History - Postwar Japan
10:45 am - 11:35 am

Tues/Thurs:

Writing 102
9:50 am - 11:10 am

Modern and Contemporary Lit: Hiroshima and Vietnam
11:20 am - 12:40 pm
Introduction to Solar System Science
12:50 pm - 2:10 pm

Literary Analysis & Argumentation
2:20 pm - 3:40 pm

Or a chart, if you like that better.



From the stand point of commuting, it's a great schedule - no gaps. Looking at it from the work angle, it's also good. I can't work on Tuesday or Thursday, but I can work a lot on the other days of the week. But man - 10 am to 4 pm with no break. That's just mean.
