Considered to be the second largest commuter school in Florida, next to Disney World, UCF provides students of all ages (Especially those aged 40+ who never got the chance to go to college) an opportunity to attend and print out a copy of a Bachelor's Degree from their library.
UCF is a model school when it comes to a lack of school spirit. When asked, 50% claimed their mascot to be Mickey Mouse, 40% said it was a horse, and 10% said they didn't know what a mascot was.
Understanding that many of their students commute from either Disney World or their parent's house, UCF has made great strides in ensuring that freshman still receive some form of the "college experience" by promoting and encouraging the "Freshman 15," which remains spearheaded by the Greek Life, mainly the sororities.
Originally, University of Central Florida's (UCF) intended purpose was to educate students in preparation for employment at Disney World as janitors, but an increase of recent standards by Disney have made it impossible for UCF graduates to work there. In order to accommodate for this, UCF has begun shuffling new graduates into fast food franchises, with the exception of Chickfila.
While still an accredited school, its status as a university remains questionable. When those responsible for accrediting schools was asked "why," they responded with, "We thought it would be funny."

Son: "Hey dad, I only got into two schools. McDonald's and University of Central Florida. Which one should I go to?"
Father: "Ok, son, for one, McDonald's isn't a school... but if you're asking me which option will give you more of a future, go to McDonald's."
Person#1: "So did you get into any colleges?"
Person#2: "UCF"
Person#1: "...So no?"
Person#2: "Yeah..."
Person#1: "I'm really sorry"

From the beginning, Tennessee Tech has been known as Tennessee’s technological university, and despite the political rivalries of the early part of the century, Tennessee Tech has flourished. All of Tennessee Tech’s undergraduate programs meet established academic quality standards as rated in external peer reviews. The university is also only the second public university to receive a Tennessee Quality Award.
Student enrollment has reached record numbers every year for the past 10 years. Student headcount surpassed the 11,000 mark for the first time in Fall 2010 and currently stands at 11,538 students. It has a beautiful campus and the staff is helpful. Its a wonderful school to attend and is an amazing education for an excellent cost.

This school is definitely not known for its strong academic standards, and the kids who go here hardly made 1000 on their SATs, if at all. Although it can be fun from time to time because drinking and smoking is huge in the dorms, and there's the occasional frat party (they kick ass in the beginning of the year, then die down), the weekends are boring because most people go home to work or they're just bored. If more people stayed on campus, it wouldn't be so boring, NOW would it??
The kids here weren't the brightest of the bunch in HS (besides me - top 10% of my class, what what!). They don't even know who William Paterson was, or what a Pioneer (our mascot) is. However, most of them are kick ass and chill people who know how to have a good time when they want to.

William Paterson is a party school, a step above community college, five steps below your average state school.
