The wifi. It's so unreliable. It will be great for a couple of days and then we're experiencing malfunctions and we need the wifi to access our homework.

The worst thing about my college would have to be the parking. There are only two parking lots designated to commuters, which I am one, and if we park in a resident lot, we will get a ticket. There are four lots designated for residents but only two for commuters. It is a pain finding a parking spot on campus. Plus, there is no where around the school to park.

In my major there are alot of extra class needed to complete my degree. I have looked at other schools that are related to IU and many do not require most of the extra class. For example the need for extra chemistry classes, me personally i am not as well in chemistry so in my case it fustrates me. This is difficult for me, but i have to do what i have to do.

Nicole

The financial aid office is difficult to deal with and there are not enough Graduate programs.

Valerie

Most students don't spend a lot of time on campus. Many people drive there, go to class, then drive home. There isn't even a school cafeteria.

Selena

The remote location. Even though Fort Wayne is not that far from several major cities, it still feels like a small town and like it's containted within its own bubble. Not many people live on campus, most live closeby or at home, so there isn't that much of a social life going on, even though there are events around campus all the time.

James

The laziness and lack of care for the students success is by far the worst thing about my school.

Joshua

The worst aspect of my school comes in the form of the campus security which is overly zealous in regulating campus decorum when distributing parking and other traffic regulations.

Adam

Like most colleges, the school operates like a business instead of a traditional university. In 2006, the student body government was awarded over $1 million for the school year, but only $56,000 of it went to the school's only tutoring program (CASA). I would consider the worst thing about this school to be the idea that the students are customers, i.e. a dollar sign.

Megan

The thing I would consider to be worst at my school is that sometimes you can be overwhelmed with the activities you may want to participate in but can't because of time that needs to be committed to school work or a part-time job.
