I have severe asthma. I handle it pretty well and can keep it in check despite the walking around campus involved in any college student?s life. However, my biggest grievance with my school is that smoking is permitted on campus. There is nothing as upsetting as having an asthma attack when you are trying to get to class. I don't judge, people can smoke if they so desire I just wish there was a designated area so others would not have to suffer the effects of second hand smoke relentlessly.

The most frustrating thing about my school is that thyere are not enough online classes for students that want to go full time but also need to work.

The most frustrating thing I have experienced is the lack of communication between departments, and the unclarity of what classes I need for my major/minor. I am a Human Development major with a minor/certification in early childhood education. The psychology department (human development) and the education department have each told me different things regarding the programs, and I have about four different lists of classes I need to take. It is really frustrating to find out that a class I am currently taking, that was on the original list they gave me, is not needed.

I think that it is stupid that people have to take general studies classes. Degrees could be done much quicker and that way people are not in as much debt. Some of my friends are 130,000 in debt because of school and their flight training costs.
