Northern Arizona University Top Questions

They did not focus on the education but the money each student brought in. The teachers did not care all the time or were unsure what they were teaching.

The worst thing about my school is the abundance of drug usage and drinking. I'm sure it happens at every school, but this university is known in Arizona for it's party atmosphere. If you have the will to stay out of it however, it's not too difficult to stay on the right path!

The worst thing about Northern Arizona University is that the cafeteria and most food establishments on campus close by 8:00 p.m. It makes it more difficult to get dinner if you have a late class. There are a few places on campus that are open late, but sometimes they are closed due to maintenance. Unless you are able to eat an early dinner or store some food in your dorm, you may have to resort to fast food off campus.

I'm not sure what the worst thing about this school is yet because i have not attended a semester there yet.

If I had to say what the worst thing about Northern Arizona University is, I would have to say the price of parking passes and how the parking lots are set up. I have not been attending NAU very long but this is something I have noticed during the short time period that I have been here for. You are only allowed access to one parking lot upon purchase even if you may have classes on the opposite end of campus with little time in between to walk, or run, to your class.

Overcrowded classes aren't a problem here but sometimes there are classes that can't take anymore students. If you aren't on the honors program or an athlete, you have to really persist in order to get the classes you want and the schedule you desire.

The worst aspect of Northern Arizona University is the food. Dining Services provides a regimented menu every week and it rarely changes. The usual items are prepared daily and only occasionally is an appealing meal prepared. Also, sometimes the food does not seem fresh and it is not always warm. I wish that I could prepare my own meals, especially since what I have to eat is not worth the money paid in advance for it.

The worst thing about Northern Arizona is the lack of food. No location is open 24 hours and most of the food stations are in two opposite sides of campus. There needs to be an improvement in food choices and hours.

The size of the school does make it difficult somtimes for things such as parking, guest parking, and getting to know people in your classes. If you are in smaller classes you can get to know the people around you, but in larger lecture halls people sit in a different spot everyday and don't always talk to the people sitting next to them.

The worst thing about the university I'm attending is that they don't consider to offer vegan foods and alternatives. Only two dining area's out of the majority of dining places has vegan food. I'm not only considering they put vegetables and fruit everywhere, that's not enough to have a vegan person's health stay on track. There needs to be more resources the vegan people on campus can turn to.
