Butler University Top Questions

I pretty much knew everthing I needed to know. The school is very competitve and a leader in the major I chose. Camous life is fun and full of oppurtunities.

That the tuition was going to keep going up to be ridiculously expensive.

More about the greek system.

I know mostly everything that I needed to know before I came here.

I wish I would have known that the tuition would raise 5{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} or greater every year meaning that I will be in debt for almost as long as it takes to pay off a house.

Social activities are based on a strong Greek atmosphere and I personally think that frats are over-rated. If drinking all the time or frat life isn't your thing then meeting people can be difficult. The school does not perform a musical every year and Clowes Hall is not owned by the university so many things are not performed there as I was led to believe (It can be rented, but is very expensive. The orchestra usually performs there though.) You cannot live off campus until you are a senior and the housing for junior year is $7000/year.

The way ethnicity is handled here. Really, any diversity. They talk a big talk about diversity, but when i first got here all of my friends and professors were white, and all the people working in the food club or janitors were black. i didnt notice until i came here. I also didn't know that people who were not christian, or who were gay, or were liberatarian, anything from the norm, would be treated so harshly here. If you're different, theres no room for you to have a voice or opinion. Even in the faculity.

I would have wished that I would have known how hard the course load was.
