What are your general comments?

"I was not impressed by Temple. The interviewer wasn't interested in anything I had to say and went down the question list without engaging in any conversation. The students that led the tour did not paint a pretty picture and didn't seem to be enjoying their time there (maybe it was because exams were coming up, but I didn't get a good vibe).
