Describe your classmates in one sentence.Every morning after a two hour commute on the one train, I am greeted with the faces of my peers from different cultures and backgrounds, who all come to one place in pursuit of knowledge.What’s unique about your school compared to other schools you considered?The City College of New York has excellent public service learning scholarships for those interested in community organizing or public policy.  This school also possesses a spirit of activism with various programs in the space of City College dedicated to this work, such as the Colin Powell Center and the Assata Shakur Center.

Describe your classmates in one sentence.For most of my classes, my classmates are culturally, economically, and educationally diverse. They represent a broad spectrum of perspectives and focuses, and add greatly to both the learning environment and the social environment. They can truly be regarded as the identity of the world today.What kind of person shouldn’t attend this school?I do not think there is anyone who should “not” attend this school. I would say, however, that for an individual who is closed-minded, is uncomfortable with cultural and religious diversity, or is rigid towards non-standard school settings, they would have a difficult time establishing themselves at this school. Nevertheless, this school is extremely wlecoming and will remain open to such individuals; and in time, the school may even stir in them a potential for openness that matches its own.

Describe your school in one sentence.City College is the first college to be part of CUNY and has buildings that looks like it could belong in the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.What do you wish you had known before you came to this school?I wish I had known that students aren’t allowed to double major in engineering.

What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?The crime rates around the campus area. It was only a week ago that a girl got mugged by two black men with bats and sexually assaulted.What’s the most frustrating thing about your school?The food is a nightmare, you could never get tasty food from the caferatia and they are too expensive.
