Spring Arbor University Top Questions

There is too much politics involved in campus administration, which in turn effects the students

The most frustrating aspect of Spring Arbor University is the location. SAU is located in the small rural town of Spring Arbor, and the closest city or place to do anything is Jackson, Michigan. Jackson is a fifteen minute drive from campus and has places to shop and things to do, but in Spring Arbor there is only a McDonalds. So to do anything like seeing a movie or going shopping you have to drive off of campus.

The most frustrating thing about Spring Arbor Universtity is that there isn't that much to do on campus on the weekends. As such many of the students go home for the weekend; leaving it like a deadzone for the rest who stay behind. Granted not having that many students on campus during the weekend is good for studying, but it's almost eirily quite.

The most frustrating thing about my school is the staffThe most frustrating thing about my school is the staff?s lack of communication and giving explanations for various situations. For example, there will be an email sent out to the entire campus regarding an issue going on, and they will continue to send the email numerous times giving different information in each email and then eventually telling the student body to disregard all the emails. Another example is when the staff will place holds on student accounts and not explain why.

The most frustrating thing about this school is the lack of off campus activities one wants to engage in. There are limited businesses and restaurants and a vehicle is required to get to the nearest town; it makes it difficult for some students unless they have friends who have a vehicle on campus.

There isn't much around this town.
