Faculty
The faculty to student ratio depends extensively on the class we're going to. The faculty and staff are extremely helpful and there are several teaching assistants always ready to help us with our course material. Miss Katie Deaven, my philosophy professor has left quite an impact on me with her excellent teaching skills.
Campus Life
The campus life is spectacular here. Although I am living off campus, there are events for international students like me every once a month. Other than that, there are other events happening all the time like career fairs etc which are really helpful to attend as a CS student. Clubs and fraternities as well as sororities are also a big thing here. Wi-fi is available on campus at all times which is very good and there is food available in most campus places.
Hostel
I'm living off campus because it is much cheaper compared to staying somewhere on campus. I'm living close to campus for the same reason to access my campus on the go.
