Who cares, right? It is USF, The UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH FLORIDA, THAT i WANT PEOPLE TO REMEMBER. iF it is by saying that we are not 'South" enough, so be it. They are however talking about us, and that's what I want. Reaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get upset because you didn't get into the school of your choice because you didn't have the grades and/or money. Believe or not there are people that chose USF over the "BIG 3." Go write for the Oracle, you'd fit right in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any student has the ability to get a great education at ANY school. An education is what you make of it. Professors will not fill in every detail of the real world for you. After I got hurt playing college football and came home. I chose USF over FSU, UF, UCF, GT, and ND. The only school I might have really went to over USF was ND. But frankly I didn't want at least 130K in student loans when I got out of there.The bottom line is if you don't think you are getting a great education at USF, leave.

Renaming our school to only use the words Tampa would be leaving out a large majority of students and Alumni. Second, why are we discussing this? Do you honestly believe we will change our name after 50 years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warped Posted November 4, 2005 Group: Member Topic Count: 23 Content Count: 141 Reputation: 0 Days Won: 0 Joined: 11/10/2004 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Triple, I had only read the first post when I replied. After that is when I read the rest, my bad. As for everyone else, I'm in grad school at USF right now. I've seen both ends of it. I've seen now how the administration handles the undergrad and graduate programs. They don't care about the undergrad at all. They put all their resources into the grad programs. The profs don't care to teach an undergrad class, it's a necessary evil to them that just gets in their way. And in doing so, they treat undergrad as such, and do not put their attention towards it, further diluting the undergrad education. I completely agree that an education is what you take out of it, but there has to be some level of education to take before you can do such. But hey, way to go in just assuming I "didn't get into" the school. As for the topic at hand....no need to change the name. USF is becoming a well-known "name" school nationally thanks to a) the football team being in the Big East, and the graduate programs turning USF into a top-notch research institution. Oh, and one other thing, I wouldn't fit in with the Oracle. That paper blows, and is WAY too left of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
