commuting sucks
I can't be the only one that believes that college caters to people who stay in the dorms over students that live off-campus. Who, besides students who live on-campus, are gonna go to an activity that is from 6 pm to 8 pm after leaving a class at 2pm? I have, but that doesn't mean other students are willing to, and I just do it because my parents arekind enough to drive me (shout out to them). But what about students whop genuinely want to participate in activities and can't because they HAVE to drive back home or stay around the campus during the 4 hours gap between their class and this activity. In hot places, like Arizona, inside spaces are always crowded and outside spaces are hot and in rain season they're humid (stinkiest season).
After the second time my dad had to drive me back to campus at 7 pm after my class ended at 10 am I noticed how unfriendly this university is to commuters, I know some people believe this is completely normal and it doesn't matter because we are adults—but I personalluy hate bringing a heavy backpack to college everyday just for 3 classes a day. So I believe colleges should start doing activities earlier in the day, specially before the cold season starts and everything but inside buildings is HOT. Overall I give commuting a 1/10, but I can't pay a dorm so I have to conform with my heavy backpack and 6 am alarm for a 10 am class. Also, imagine paying for parking passes.
