Fordham University Q&A
The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.
A lot of people have been asking me questions, so I wanted to make a little video just like put together so that people have, like, back to reference like you wanted to go to Fordham like I am going to be answering most of the questions that I could think of that are a relevant be. I'd say like 400 ish people live in that door and then there's like a couple freshman sprinkled out McMahon. All that's really connected to the room is you have your own bathroom. So we didn't have to share a bathroom with another room because we already had three people, which is usually how triples work. It's the one with the really, really pretty views. You don't really get to know a lot of the freshman because a lot of the time people hang out on that side of the campus. If you're a freshman and you don't have a meal plan, if you're in McMahon because, I mean, you don't really need one because you have a kitchen. Yeah, so you don't really have an option as to the kind of food that you get just because you don't have a kitchen. I'm not really sure about that, but basically the only place in the Lincoln Center campus. Most people usually only go to the dining hall during lunch and dinner because for some reason, people just don't like to eat breakfast. I feel like having really cold weather, really bad winters. So if you really do not want to go outside, you never have to go outside. Like, leave your door open so that you could make friends of people walking back and, like, come into a room and say hi. There are times like during the first, like orientation week, like people like keep your door closed. Pick your roommate so that there would have already been a Facebook page for your class created where a lot of people, like go in there like looking for a roommate. So you know things things changed, like you mean people. Then you hang out with people when you adapt to their lifestyle and they adopt yours, you know, and it's like it's like absent flows, ebbs and flows. See, people even know I have a really bad habit of non saying hi to people that I know. Like people say, like, own your English, Wanna one class? You're gonna be like one in like 300 like Fordham salt like that, like we do not really have like giant lecture classes. Every class size is like 30 and under, like my comp to class was like 14 people. It's gonna be like I kind of feel like even though it wasn't my first choice, I'm in a super good area that I really, really like. Like honestly, like a bell, it's really hard. You need to actually build your life around that schedule because you really don't have an option for me like that was nice of me not having to really do anything. There isn't really a party scene at Fordham, but like you see, I'm smack like our bar stole items only been on Marshall one time, and that was not because of a party. So nobody's really having parties in the dorms all that much like it's just kind of like people are having kickbacks like there's a lot of kickbacks in the dorm like people will just hang out, like in the room or whatever. Maybe you can head over to Rose Hill if you really want that experience, but you're really not gonna get it here. As far as I know, a lot of people like to go clubbing about two bars. There's really no like, Oh, the party on 20 like, let's goto the 20th floor and the party like that doesn't exist. One thing I'd like to mention just, like really quickly. For the people who don't know Fordham is Catholic. There's a lot of eighties people, especially at Lincoln Center. There are just so many like I don't know non Catholic people at the school that that's not really something, in my opinion, that you need to worry about. Like, Yes, there will be emails about going to Mass, But nobody is like Have you gone to Mass? So if you're worried about that whole situation or that something you didn't realize, like, I'm just when you know like it's really not a problem at all. You d'oh like listen to all the rules, motivational speeches, those a really fun, you know, like summer camp activities like you play getting to know your game. So go on an excursion and I feel like that is what it's like for a lot of people. Is police going on excursion? Because even if you don't like have my experience, it's still gonna be really fun. So the one thing I do want to talk about is making friends because I think that's a thing that a lot of people get concerned with. I know for a lot of people, a lot of people don't really make their real real friends until second semester. It's just like there are clumps of people and the clumps of people hang out together. It's just like, very clear, like who the groups are, especially when people make groups of 10 or more wrong with that.
