ucr

A school located in Riverside, California. Apart of the UC system and has amazing professors, facilities, and programs. Catches a bad rep for having low admissions standards in the past. Known for it's commitment to underserved, disadvantaged communities and having a diverse student population. A school improving in reputation in all facets of education. Shit on by insecure people.

The Washington Monthly ranked UCR 16th in the United States in terms of social mobility, research and community service, while US News and World Report ranked UCR's undergraduate program 94th in the nation (out of 368 colleges) based on peer assessment, student selectivity, financial resources, and other factors. U.S. News ranks UCR as the third most ethnically diverse and, by the number of undergraduates receiving Pell Grants (42 percent), the 15th most economically diverse student body in the nation. UCR's extensive outreach and retention programs have contributed to its reputation as a "campus of choice" for minority students, including LGBT students. In 2005, UCR became the first public university campus in the nation to offer a gender-neutral housing option.

ucr

a college designed with the sole intent of destroying all your ideals regarding college. It's not a magical land of mature people, it's a fantasy land where perpetual high school kids live independently from their parents for four years. It's inhabited with a mixed batch of pituitary cases and shallow cellphone brandishing moroons who have no interest in learning. The eclectic interest of the typical student at UCR lies in the following activities: never attending classes, failing nearly everything, drinking themselves retarded, gaining base knowledge on how to unreflectively acquire a decent paying job in order to attain some materialistic goal bred from a californian upbringing, and if they get lucky, turning impressionable freshman girls into emotional wrecks.

Speaking of vacuous, i go to UCR.

ucr

College which is apparently filled with whiny losers who do not understand that education is what you make of it. Students continuously cry about how they did not make it into a "better" school instead of doing something about it. The students make the school, lack of intelligence, motivation, and direction comes from students, not the school itself.

Waa waaa waaaaa I go to UCR and I don't feel smart, waaa waaaa - whiney UCR student with no potential.
