Elmhurst College Top Questions

The worst thing about Elmhurst College is the fact that it is composed of mostley commuter students. Two thirds of the students enrolled commute leaving a small amount of campus life. Many times the weekends can be boring, with very few campus activities going on. Also since many people commute the dining areas on campus have shorter hours on the weekends.

Probably food prices. They are way overpriced.

I think that the worst thing about this school is that the smallness of it makes it harder to branch out and make new friends. It is in the same respect as high school where once you have a group of friends, you are basically sticking with that group for four years.

The thing I consider to be the worst about Elmhurst is the atmosphere provided on weekends and even during week days. Many times the campus is dead and it's hard to find activities that keep you interested and motivated to stay on campus. If I'm attending and paying for a school, I want the feeling of always wanting to be there.

There are several issues that have occurred recently regarding racial/cultural/religious differences that have painted the student population poorly.

The parking sitution. There is always a problem for parking the morning and the afternoon for classes.

we did have a girl who lied about a hate crime. I did not feel safe at the time. But after a wile it was all fixed and i feel safe now.

Parking!!! It's a nightmare and I'm always late to class because of it. Horrible!!!

They decided to kick my sorority off campus last semester because we weren't a national sorority and are considered a liability. After being on campus for nearly 20 years and all of sudden for them to do this out of the blue-really hurt! They are now replacing us and it makes me really sad to see how the administration has such an overruling power compared to the Student Goverment Assoc.
