What do you consider the worst thing about Michigan State University? Why?

Ashlin

The worst thing about Michigan State is the dIstance it is away from my home.

Benjamin

The worst thing about Michigan State University is the amount of people who center themselves around small things of life; worrying and obsessing about it to the point that their mood can negatively others.

Benjamin

This is a particularly hard question considering I love most things regarding my school, but I would have to say the biggest negative about MSU is the size. Our campus houses about 46,000 students and has lecture building across campus. Sometimes it is frustrating to know that you have a twenty minute walk to class. This bothers some students, but I quickly became accustom to it therefore leaving no lasting effect upon myself. I have enjoyed my time here and a bigger university only means there are more people for one to meet.

Nate

The sheer number of students that attend MSU sometimes makes it a little overwhelming, and occassionally I feel like I get lost amidst a sea of other undergraduates.

Michelle

It's very sterotypical, people really don't think for themselves. All anyone cares about is partying and boys/girls. I think that can all be fun but I prefer people with depth and you won't find that here.

Jasmin

The worst thing about my school is the party atmosphere. It is almost impossible to turn down a party, due to the amount of pressure placed on a person by peers.

Holly

I would say the worst thing about MSU is the crowded buses and the fact that MSU is known as a party school. The crowded buses make it unmotivating to go to class and sometimes you can be late. The fact that MSU is known as a party school is the worst part because the school has so many opportunites for students that it is more than socializing and drinking.

Kristina

I think the worst thing about MSU is the order of priorities in the Administration Departments. For example, I am currently enrolled in the Deaf Education program, the only Auditory-Oral program in Michigan. Unfortunately, this year MSU has had to make budget cuts. But, instead of the adminstration taking a slight paycut they have decided to cut this program as well as about 30 others. If the president of MSU, took a 50{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} cut she would still be making over $200,000/year. Part of our motto is "transforming lives". I don't think cutting these programs agrees.

Elizabeth

The amount of time it takes to walk to class, about 45 minutes to get to the other side of campus.

Michael

The worst thing is the amount of time it takes to walk to the different buildings, although it contributes to one of the best things, which is the beautiful campus that encompasses said buildings.
