What do you consider the worst thing about Indiana University-Purdue University-Indianapolis? Why?

Rebecca

nothing is bad.

Ruendy

There isn?t an actual thing I would consider the worst thing about my school. I think is perfect the way it is.

Kathleen

The gap between the adult students and traditional students. There is a lot of resentment and disrespect coming from both sides.

Melanie

The worst thing about IUPUI is probably that there are no truely good places to hang out on campus on the weekends. The only place is the library but that is primarily a study area. The student campus center is good but should have more open activities for students to readily participate in. It also needs more flexible hours.

Erin

There are a lot of different age groups, so it is harder to make/find friends of similar interests.

Sabina

I like everything about my campus, I am very happy to have chosen IUPUI.

andrea

It is a commuter school so there isn't much activity after classes each night or on the weekends.

Jordan

Lack of campus life. IUPUI is working very hard to get away from the "commuter college" image and has done a very good job, but not fully there yet.

Michelle

The worst thing about my school is nothing about the school itself, but is the stigma that it may have. Because it is a centrally located school that combines Indiana University and Purdue University to offer students an alternative to moving away for a college degree, people sometimes may associate IUPUI as an "easier" school (extermely untrue). Many people are not even aware of all the opportunities and benefits that IUPUI has to offer because of a false pretenses.

The worst thing about this school is parking for students who commute. From about 8:30am to 6pm, thirty to forty-five minutes must be allowed for time to drive around looking for a spot.
