I vastly prefer in-person lectures, and am more than grateful to be on campus - but everything compiled on Canvas and at your disposal was a huge relief in one of the most stressful times in many people’s lives. Whether your classes were asynchronous like most of mine were, or recorded for later, the ability to go back and see what was stated earlier in a lecture or rewatch when a particularly difficult or complex subject was covered was beneficial.įor those of us with issues paying attention in long classes, 1.5x and 2x speed options and closed captions were practically miracles, and anyone with a busy schedule can attest to the fact that working on your own time also carried benefits. While everyone including myself was certainly tired of Zoom University, online classes did have some benefits. But while the weather is nice, and the buses are plentiful, it seems pretty damn convenient to have our own bus system that often stops right at the doorstep of so many classes.Īnd for a popular opinion: Let people off the bus first, and always thank the driver! Perhaps I’m wearing the rose-colored glasses of the sweet relief of coming back to campus, and the days of an intensely crowded LX on a December night are too far in the recesses of my memory for me to truly bring forth any loathing of a Rutgers bus. Except - the Rutgers bus system is actually really good. I don’t think anyone is expecting a five star experience, and my hat is perpetually tipped to the workers in every dining hall for the tireless work they do - but Neilson Dining Hall on Cook campus is just as good sometimes, and even then … it’s still just a dining hall.įrom group chats to dining hall or class conversations to the Rutgers subreddit, complaints about the Rutgers bus system are more frequent than the buses actually come to the stops. Sometimes the vegetables are soggy, sometimes the chicken is undercooked. While there are some pretty nice perks there, like the custom pasta bar and the burgers and fries to order, it’s still, well, a dining hall.

Speaking of food, Livingston Dining Commons is not all it’s cracked up to be. Red Pine Pizza is a delicious and affordable option that trumps Sbarro in the "pizza for a meal swipe" options, and while it’s unfortunately closed this semester, Cook Cafe has the best sandwiches in an on-campus dining facility. They are pretty beautiful campuses, with the most nature out of the other three campuses (Cook and Douglass campuses are interconnected, so they basically count as one), which makes them worth a walk around despite the fact that many believe they are too spread out.

They might not have the shine of the College Avenue campus' multitude of restaurants and all night eateries, Livingston campus' swanky business school and movie theatre or … whatever makes people like Busch campus more, but the Cook and Douglass campuses are not the terrible places many Rutgers students make them out to be. But some popular opinions, I seek to dispel. The Busch geese will attack, Brower food sucks, the buses will inevitably break down at least once when you're on one. No matter someone's gender or sexuality, their race or country of origin, their age or where they come from, some things seem to be cemented into Rutgers canon. But some opinions seem to transcend major or class year, and even broader categories.
