Pros

- Extremely intelligent and hard-working colleagues - Huge variety of work in all fields of civil and environmental engineering - Professors are very intelligent and knowledgeable - Top 5 engineering school - Tons of extracurricular opportunities

Cons

- Sometimes engineers are lacking in social acumen - Teaching is not emphasized to the same extent as research. As a result, the quality of the teaching is entirely dependent on the will of the professor, and most professors view teaching as a chore. - Doesn't have the prestige of MIT or Berkeley, even though we are highly ranked - Dearth of attractive women

Pros

- Free Housing - Meal Plan - One of the better on campus job for students in my opinion (still able to be involved in other activities as a student on campus)

Cons

- Duty part of the job (Being on call and getting late night lock outs but this is rare), and definitely can still do homework in between doing duty rounds - experience can also depend on your hall director / area (but regardless still served on great RA teams, can be great if you have a co-ra but also been good at time being a single RA on the floor (no need to coordinate schedule if you do events together as a single RA unless you alternate events with your co)
