The administration sucks so bad, it's all red tape, nobody can help you with your problem & they act like you're interrupting them. The teachers tend to use their liberal thoughts to teach to you. They try to get you to believe their political views.

You definitely have to get used to the people… its a very liberal school. Because we're in MA, there's a lot of massholes… people will avoid contact with you and avoid saying hi as much as possible. A lot of girls in SouthWest come off as really snooty & rude, they are usually not that bad, you just can't be intimidated by them, they will size you up and look at you as competition not as a potential friend. Overall, I have a really good time here, it's fun on the weekends, & my friends are awesome… the quality of education is amazing, but the administration completely blows it…
