Re: dont you hate 804
Before I graduated, I was president of Phi Kappa Sigma here for 2 years, which is currently still trying to become a full chapter. It was a good (and costly) experience and took a ton of my time. Being president and trying to manage graduating in 3 years is difficult but still worth it. Had a lot of good times.
Sidenote: A lot of people don't go to VCU because its the only school that accepted them or because "it's easy." I got into University of Richmond and W&M, but neither appealed to me (one being too expensive and the other being a different environment than I wanted.) UofR offered me 6 credits for my IB Diploma and i had to come out of pocket $42k a year...VCU gave me 27 credits, allowing me to graduate early, and it cost about 1/6 of that price. Plus, I grew up in Mechanicsville (went to Lee-Davis) and Henrico, knew tons of people that went to VCU and was down in the city A LOT senior year of HS. It was almost a no brainer when picking schools. My grandparents live in Williamsburg and I've lived there several years, so I grew up around W&M too...just didn't appeal to me as much as the fist city.
