I love it! what is john paradise home address .
I went to The University of Bridgeport for my freshman year of college and to be honest I felt really unsafe and I never wanted to go off campus without my boyfriend. The bus that brings students around the town is shared with the whole town and other towns so therefor I felt that was also unsafe. The school should really have an entrance and security making sure everyone coming on campus should be on campus. The dorms are dirty and should be updated with A/C and heat just like Chaffee is.
