California Lutheran University Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about California Lutheran University? Why?

Carol

Maybe it was just my dorm, but there were a lot more drugs/alcohal out in the open than I had expected to see at a no-tolerance school. Our RA's just stopped caring, even though it was all way obvious.

Kim

The worst thing about my school is that it costs so much. It costs around $30,000 a year.

Jenny

Probably how much it costs, but its a choice I made by going to a private school.

Crystina

The worst thing about my school is not having any sororities or fraternities. Although there are many grops and organizations on campus I feel that more student would stick around on weekends if there was more to do on campus. I know that I wanted to get the "full college experience" and pledge for a sorority.

Antonio

Almost has high school drama, everyone knows everthing about everyone.

Elizabeth

The worst thing about my school would be how much you can get involved in at once. Since it is a smaller institution, you have to opprotunity to get involved with many things, but at the same time, this could be bad...when you get so involved with school that could be the onlky thing you do socially or you can forget about school work.

Anthony

It is a dead town. Everthing closes at 9pm. I am from a suburb from Los Angeles and Thousand Oaks is just too quiet for me.

Chase

The lack of communication between administrative offices such as the business office and the financial aid office. Trying to resolve a problem with your student account quickly become very stressful when you serve as the go-between-person for these two offices.

Samantha

The worst thing is actally something that has helped me grow and learn. The size of Cal Lutheran is rather small so a lot of gossip goes around from time to time. However, many sutdents have been able to see past this, determine who their true friends are, and grow up ina mature and responsible way. This school has opened my eyes into being a better person and in that bettering others too. By being able to see past what some people use as arrogance or ignorace, I have grown up, and i owe that to Cal Lutheran.

Evan

Unfortunately, the best thing and the worst thing are the same. The small school atmosphere allows for social drama among students and a feeling like everyone knows your business. Knowing that the things you do on the weekends may be broadcasted across the campus come Monday is not something students look forward to. It truly is like one big family where gossip gets passed around to each member.
