[SQ8]

Even as a FAST alumni.. I am very happy its not in the overall top ten.
The administration sucks.. The only reason students excelled is because of good teachers..
The university itself does NOTHING more than provide a roof for the teachers to teach the students.
NOTHING.

NOTHING.

Even before my time at FAST, which must've been before yours, most of the teachers that made it into what it was, had left, and the university becoming a cash-making enterprise. They shouldn't really count as a university because they hardly did any research.
