I hate the first two weeks when classes start

there is no where to park. All the cannon fodder, as I call them, show up for two weeks and then fail out of life. I just wish they would skip the process completely, then there would be somewhere to park.

There's always a mass exodus after the financial aid checks are processed and sent out

plus all the people trying to get added, so they hang out all day long

It was terrible when I was at Rutgers. Some of the computer science classes were just horrible. The professor was an andriod and just taught facing the blackboard. I had one class that, on the first day, there were people sitting along the walls, there weren't enough desks for everyone.. about half way into the semester, there were plenty of desks for everyone with plenty left over. Come test days, the room is packed. ridiculous.
That's what you get at a big school though.

You are making me thankful for my age and that school days are long over!

I am a creature of habit and usually sit in the same place for every class. I hate it on test days when the room fills up and I have to sit somewhere else

I am currently at Rutgers. And for such a big campus, it's always crowded, no matter where you go. The lecture halls are ridiculous. I went to a class that was supposed to be 90-something people and an extra 30 people were sitting in, waiting for someone to drop so they could take their spot. It's still going on. Luckily, us grad students can take whatever we want under a different number or I probably would have been sitting alongside the rest of them.
