Texas Tech University Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about Texas Tech University? Why?

Emily

The worst thing about Texas Tech is that the campus police are overly zealous about their jobs. I once got a $70 ticket for riding my bike the wrong direction on campus, and have been stopped for going 2 miles over the 20 mph speed limit.

I would have to say the worst thing about this campus is the distance between some of the buildings. Sometimes you only have ten minutes to get across the campus, and without a bike that can sometimes be very difficult. Other than that the campus is a great campus and the staff is of great help in everyway.

The lower level classes do include unserious or lazy students which is frustrating for the professor and others; and of course our party school reputation.

The absolute, worst thing about Texas Tech University is the distance away from home! I live in Cypress, Texas so if I want to go home I either have to pay for a flight (which is more than I can afford) or drive 9 hours!

adriana

The worst thing about my school I would have to say is the lack of one-on-one help. If you need help setting up/doing things you cannot rely on someone to do it for you, you basically have to get it done on your own.

Kiara

The travel time it takes to get Texas Tech is the worst thing about the school.

Tiffany

When it rains, it floods. Be prepared.

Charles

The worst thing about Texas Tech University is that the weather can be unpredictable. There seems to be no definite hot or cold month. Some of the days in Lubbock will be eighty-five degrees and the next day can be thirty degrees with a chance of snow.

Lindsey

The worst thing about my school is probably the location for the sheer fact that college is a place where many young adults gather, and Lubbock has little to offer in regards to entertainment.

Erica

The worst thing about Texas Tech is the dorm that I live in. Chitwood is the name and it needs some major renovating. Everything is falling apart and breaking along with water pipes constantly either busting or acting up. It smells terrible from water damage and from being old in general. If I have to pay as much as everyone else then I should get a place that is equal to other dorms.
