sorry I just dont think i should make a thread for this question | FYI, UVic is somewhat similar to SFU. Definitely not as drab, but I've found it to be lacking in the school spirit at times. It's nothing compared to UBC.

Sometimes I wish I could attend classes there instead lol, SFU burnaby is pretty depressing lol | Somewhat true, but SFU Surrey has its bad points, too.

Most times if you wait till last minute you'll be OK, yet it only takes one time to be royally fucked. Considering many classes have cascading prerequisites, fucking up one class cause 2 drunk girls stumbled into your room half-naked can literally fuck you for the next 4 years.
So true!
I miss attending class, I had the best naps during engineering lectures. | note to self: do the paper to have random threesome.

To me, there's the (supposed, anyways) university experience, and then there's the college experience. And then there's the adult school experience, which is where SFU Surrey falls under.
I can't believe anybody seriously considers paying $6-800 per course for tuition to sit on top of a fucking mall in between Surrey Central and the middle of buttfuck nowhere.

What really sucks is when you have some of your courses on the mountain and some in Surrey.

From a school spirit I could see where your coming from, but I believe that plays into such a small roll in your experience there. I would never classify life at UVic similiar to SFU or even UBC unless your living there.
UVic is unique because 18000 students (3000 in res in your first year) all live within 15 minutes from campus, and is close knit enough that ever party I went too, I recognized tons of people outside my circle of freinds. Much of what the original writer of that suggestive list said I believe applies great to life at UVic and recommend it to everyone.

Other than that...the only positive is the Brewery and Food Court.

Insightful write up.

I paid all my tuition to sleep in class. Strangely enough, I felt obligated to attend class all the time, but then I would usually just sleep.

I spent the last 4 years prior to my enrollment at UVic living in Victoria, so that means I've been "stuck" here about 8 years now. I guess it's more of a personal issue for me, as I hate Victoria and pretty much everything to do with it. I went to Uvic merely for convenience, which I regret. Anyways, I'm finishing up my undergrad, and I'm moving out east to work on my Masters. I'm sure university will be a totally different ball-park there, as I'll be forced to integrate more so into university life.
That isn't to say I've missed out on the university experience, as that's not the case at all - it's more like I haven't enjoyed most of my university life here. I've met a lot of great people, had some awesome nights, and done a lot of stupid shit (especially lately), but I just cannot force myself to like UVic/Victoria.
