Was fine for a while at EIU, then the school began ran razor thin on money and began laying off mass-quantities of service workers and before I knew it we no longer had garbage cans in the buildings. Not many donors there. There are two entire dorm buildings on campus that are vacant because of the drastic decrease in enrollment within the past five years.
I'm not saying I transferred because garbage cans weren't supplied to me, but the environment isn't where I wanted to spend the only four years of college that I get.
When I graduated high school, I wanted to be at KU after my second year of college and I am glad I made the move.

I understand. I don't want to have to worry about a state's budget impacting the quality of my learning and living.
