After moving to Lubbock and attending school full time, I can?t believe I spent money to attend Texas Tech. Students here lack a complete sense of reality and view outside the panhandle. Compounding this small-mindedness is an overwhelming absence of maturity and ambition. I guess you don?t have to act like an adult when your parents pay for everything, the school turns a blind eye to a ton of misconduct, or you can buy answers for everything. It?s even acceptable for students to sleep with their professors for grades. That is very fitting conduct for a school in the worst city in America that breeds racism and strife. It?s impressive just to drive 20 minutes and not almost get taken out by a drunk teen or a junkie. When you are not driving, you must worry about your house being broken into by the endless herd of transient laborers. This is not a place with a great academic atmosphere, and for just a little more, you can attend school somewhere nice.

I am a graduate and hope my children will go to Tech. I have a good degree, it?s helped me become gainfully employed. Unfortunately, the university did not help me find a job. Or they did not have good relationships with employers, unless you were in the Engineering college, all other colleges...not so much.

Texas Tech is a great university to attend and Lubbock provides all the amenities you will find in larger cities but still feels like a college town.
