Great, but could be better

Overall, everything at the University is going very well. Classes are classes, and the workload is to be expected. The worst parts of this experience so far have been the housing, and also the required New Zealand course we had to take as part of our program at the beginning of the semester. The course took up so much time, it made the adjustment to life here much harder than it needed to be. In addition, I had 3 University classes on top of that, whereas most of my peers had only 2, so it was alot worse for me. In terms of housing, the Quadrant is a nightmare. The space is way too small and is not suited for living in or doing any school work.
