Okay, I seem to have created some confusion with my first article. When I said "student social centers", I didn't know if you are all familiar with the term "student union". To clarify, is there an official place on campus where you can have fun? Or do you go off campus to have fun? I've gotten a few replies telling me that most students commute to uni, and almost 100% live in the cities. I've also gotten a letter saying that student political parties were at some unis. We don't have student parties at my uni, but I think that some American and Canadian unis do (including the Uni of Maryland, U.S.A.) To add to my first article, I have these questions: What is being done about sexual discrimination? What is being done to increase personal and campus safety? If any of you are involved in student political parties, please tell me about them. At my uni, the administration FINALLY started an escort service after muddling around for years. It's a two-person system; one man and one woman, who keep in contact with headquarters through hand-held radios/walkie-talkies, from 1600 to 0200 hours, seven days a week. Oh, one more thing. How does your uni deal with transfer students? Unfortunately, my uni treats them like dog food; the idea being that if they weren't smart enough to get in as freshmen, they can't be that smart (which is a bunch of garbage). Thanks to everybody whose replied so far, and I'm really looking forward to more letters. Bye!
