Complaining while seeking degree

 
I always feel humiliated when I hear about another student degrade my university. People are always quick to say what SU is not, but are never quick to say what it is.
SU is the university that we chose to invest our money and ultimately our futures into. The same students who constantly verbally degrade SU are the same ones who are trying to walk across the stage and graduate.
These same people who devalue SU are the same hypocrites that wear SU apparel and attend all the home football games.
I ask this, why would you want a degree from a school that you frequently demote?
Isn’t it the same university that you denounced when you were in undergrad? 
It makes absolutely no sense to attend an establishment that you have absolutely no faith in. It makes you look more than unintelligent to degrade an institution that you’re currently enrolled in.
Like I stated before, SU may not be a lot of things, but it’s my university.
I take pride in my choice of higher education.
A person could receive a degree from any university but the choice of university also says a lot about that person.
When I graduate from here I will be proud to tell my employer that I got a quality education, and even though my university isn’t an Ivy League school, it’s still prestigious.
Dear complaining student, I understand that you feel that complaining is the only resort, but I promise there are other ways. The first and best way to fix the things that are wrong with SU is to stop complaining and participate. You’d be amazed at how much you can accomplish with some effort and resilience. No one will ever be aware of your issues if you keep them to yourself or if you convey them in an off-putting manner.
Another option is, and this is for the extremist out there, TRANSFER!
It is very unfortunate if any student takes this route, but I don’t want imposters at my school.
If all you do is complain then you obviously shouldn’t be here. I would love to say that you’ll be missed, but the sad truth is that you wont.
 I do mean to be harsh.
SU is a university filled with productive, motivated and prideful students. For you to degrade our university in such a way then receive a degree from it is the ultimate insult. At least for me it is.
Signed, proud prospective graduate.
