I know I’m writing something which
is inconvenient to some people, but I have to, or I may be suffocated to death
of not being able to express it out. It’s about my school, Royal University of
Law and Economics or RULE, as commonly known. It’s about three years that I’ve
been studying here, but I feel like a hundred years living in hell. Admittedly,
I’m not a hard working student, and I know it’s because of me myself. I take
all the blames of being lazy doing assignments or homework, late coming to
classes, sleeping during lecture, and stuffs. However, please let me make some
disturbing noises toward this school. Although I know I’m not qualified to do
so, but as a student, I have to in order to make a change more or less for the
betterment of the next generation, I believe.
RULE is the law school, but it
allows juveniles to work in the parking lot, which is believed to be the hard
place for them as they have to move motor bikes from one block to another nonstop.
What is more, I’m speechless when I see those under-eighteen staffs smoke
without being fear of anybody. I have no idea why school boards don’t take any
action on this, or they think it’s not the serious case. Of course, it is, as
it the first place people step in when they come to the university. What will
the new comers feel when they first see the picture of CHILDREN SMOKIN IN THE
UNIVERSITY CAMPUS?
Another problem is about the
environment. The university campus is too small for more than 10 thousand students,
but it’s not about the size that I’m concerning but the hygiene itself. Most of
the time I go to restroom, I almost vomit because of the bad smell and
dirtiness. Not only bad smell and dirtiness, but also countless dirty words are
on the walls in the toilets. This should be blamed on those brainless or
animal-like students.
What is controversial point is that
staffs (not all) who work in student affairs, administration, accounting
offices and library are so arrogant. It’s true, and everybody knows that when
students come to them to ask for favors, they treat us like we were baggers
asking for alms by ignoring us or speaking harshly to us. One of my friends
shared her experience that when she approached one lecturer to ask something in
urgent related to her study, she had to wait until he finished his video game
first, so that she could get the response. How can such a thing happen? They get
paid from our study fees. They’re supposed to act as the service providers not
the bosses. Moreover, library at the university is so noisy. It needs to be
quiet so that students can do self-studies, but it’s not, for it’s the place
for librarians to play video game and chit chat. I can never concentrate on
reading there, and so do other students through my observation, so I choose not
to spend time in it unless I need to find documents.
There are some other negative
points happen in the university like the curriculum. Many students complain
that they are tired of studying 5 hours a day starting from 12 pm to 5 pm most
of the days. Even I myself, I’m so fed up with this too. From 11 am to 1 pm,
it’s supposed to be lunch time that people can also take some rest, so how can
they expect us to be concentrated in the class. Honestly, I always fall asleep
during the lecture at that time. Another point that I want to make is that goods
sold in the university’s cafeteria are too expensive. For example, a bottle of
Coke which costs only $0.5 outside but $0.75 there, which is even more
expensive than that in supermarket?
Frankly, I don’t have good memories
studying in this university, but thank GOD that I have many good friends that
can make up for this. Through this article, I hope university boards take these
cases into consideration and try to make some changes.
Hope you are reading this, RULE
people!
