Fisk is cool. I would say that its an acquired taste and a school you definitely have to get used to. Its a lot of stuff to do around campus. Its anything here that you wanna do really, you just have to get out there.
Is there anything specific you wanna know? Cuz Ill tell you the truth Lol
Well as a freshman girl, you will stay in Junilee Hall. Its a lot of history about this building but you will find that out eventually. The rooms are spacious. It has a desk, big closets and drawers. Computer Lab and all that stuff. Its a normal freshman dorm. Its a curfew at 12AM for freshmans. Im gonna say its not that serious. But if you wanna know ore about that message me. The bathrooms are okay, nothing to brag about. Laudry rooms are in the basement and they cost a $1 in quauters to wash and a $1 in quaters to dry.
Hmm I dont know anything else I can tell you about them. Oh yeah its 3 other dorms. New Livingstone which is for male students, Croswaith Hall which is for sopomore girls, and Shane which is co-ed and for upperclassman.
So, last night my friends and I decided to take a minor "road trip". . .
and we drove and drove and drove down Gallatin Road, until we came upon the Titans stadium. . .
so then I was like "let's go on Jefferson". . .
so we went on Jefferson
crackheads cluckas and more crackheads, just hanging out and beggin. . .
anyways, we went over to Fisk and we saw this gigantic bell with a large rope hanging from it. . .
So this guy I was with had this bright idea to go out and try to ring it. . .lol
being the immature person I am, I proudly agreed. . . lol
never went through with it because security was camping out right near the bell. . .
dang
so then we just went up to TSU and hung with some friends. . .
anywaysssss that was my Fisk adventure. . .
The dorms so pretty alright. . .How about the campus life as a whole?
andddd the academics. . .professors. . .and stuff!!!
Academics is the numero uno most important thing to me. . .
Oh yeah, and why are you planning to transfer?
My mom went to Fisk!
Didnt Jubilee Hall used be a classroom building?
Yup it was, but Im guessing they did some remodeling since then. LOL
Yeah Jefferson is full of those crackheads and crazy people. I wouldn't walk down there alone in the evening time. But during the day its okay. It was a party at Fisk last night so Im thinking thats why you saw all those security guards.
Campus life at Fisk can be as fun as you make it. But I think its pretty much like that at any school you attend. There are lots of organizations you can join. If you are interested in running for an office within your class, you can do that also. I decided to do that and I think it was a great experience. There are events on campus, people come to speak about a variety of different subjects. About two weeks ago, Hill Harper was here speaking, which was rather interesting.
Academics are great. That's one thing I can't complain about here a Fisk. The teacher's really do care about you and how your doing in the class. The teachers are available to talk to you and most the time they will make the time to see you if you are having a problem in the class. I guess that's one adavntage of going to a small school.
I dont know if Im transfering as of yet. I would love to stay at Fisk becuase I love the academics and socially, I think its pretty good. But Im thinking about it only becuase Im oringinally from Philadelphia. Its just so expensive going home and coming back for breaks and things. So basically i was looking for a cheaper alternative.

Yeah, going to a smaller school does have its advantages when it comes to getting one-on-one time with professors.
And the travel is mad crazy. I had to go from Atlanta to DC...I got to a point where I just stopped going home LOL!

Do what’s best for you personally. However, if you are happy, I would not transfer. Your college days will be over before you know it. Essentially, you are almost ¼ of the way done. Best wishes with everything.
PS. I am a big fan of Track & Field. Therefore, I am thinking about attending the Penn Relays in Philadelphia. Do you recommend this event? If so, which events, attractions, etc, do you recommend? Thanks for your input!

Yeah, I think if you like them you should go. I went one year and I had fun. I would recommend the college and high school tournaments. They are always interesting. There should be a lot of interesting things going on in the city during that time to, but I would just play those by ear.
