I would say living on campus is by far one of the most terrible things I have ever experienced in my life. I could write a book on everything wrong with the dorm living. Just an overall horrendous place to get an education. Frankly such colleges as TSU should not be allowed to operate. Especially if I am paying! That's ok, I stopped going here.

If you aren't going here for STEM then you will absolutely not have the patience to go through all the things that go on here and take advantage of the low cost tuition. I think that is about the only positive thing that I can say about this college. Facilities, classrooms, dorms are absolutely atrocious.

This college insists on living in the past while other far more modern colleges are light years ahead in development and diversity. The college seems to be right on the margins of existence. I don't know that there are worse colleges you could attend than this one. It's not that I don't like it myself. It's because it really shouldn't exist.

Run. Run far far away and don't look back. Thank me later.

If you want to find out what experiencing everything at its worse is like then please attend this school. There is about 2 quadrillion things wrong with this institution. Just 2 quadrillion you ask? Actually an infinite number of things are wrong with this school. You may as well burn your degree from here.
