Since I don't have much to do tonight...I'll just break it down
1). They're is no school spirit. Everyone minds their own. It's the biggest school in DFW, and there's no football team.
2). Recently, they put in this new database system on their website to register for classes and such. It's been glitchy, more complicated than it should be. I, and many others, thought I was registered for certain classes, because it was on the class list thingamajig at the time, but apparently you have to click the nearly hidden 'proceed to step 3/3' which does absolutely nothing anyway, so one of the classes I really wanted was full, and I was going to take it with a couple friends too. So that screwed up my entire schedule of bio and chem labs. And then a lot of the labs have turned out full lately, so there's not much schedule variety I can choose from at this point. Grr.
3). A lot of the teachers are just incompetent when it comes to grading and helping students out. I guess they just don't care. There's a few that do care about their classes, and I'd love to take classes with them again. But for the most part, a lot of the teachers have been a thumbs down. I had a bad experience with my first chemistry teacher there, who manipulated the class syllabus in the middle of semester, when attendance wasn't a requirement. That turned out bad, and now my GPA is...in critical condition. He was also very unprofessional when I wanted to talk about it with him.
4). The campus is unattractive.
5). I have a family member who works there, and at other schools, I'd have tuition benefits, if not the entire tution off. Boo.
6). Many scholarship opportunities are let down if you don't have the exact minimum. Someone with a 3.198 GPA would have no chance at a scholarship that requires a 3.2 GPA.
And there's more...blah.

1) Spotless - Either just washed or a member of a car forum that meticulously maintains it
2) Fender Strakes - dont see those very often
3) Clear corners - Never see those
4) V Red with Black/Tan leather
Plus I saw your thread saying you went there. How many RX8's could there be there like that.

haha, gotcha
I'm the only red at UTA that I know of anyway. There's a couple of greys, and I've seen a yellow with nice rims a few times. There's also a red FD.
