It's a hard choice to pick what I like least about UCSB-- the people are friendly and decent for the most part, the campus is very clean and well structured. I suppose the worst thing would be the professors for some of the classes I've taken. They were be nearly incomprehensible and I felt like I wasn't learning anything from the lectures. Always research your professors before taking a class! It might make or break what grade you get and how much you like the subject.

The worst thing of this campus is diversity. In my experience, it felt strange walking into a university with mostly white students. However, their tolerance for the low diversity was outstanding that now I don't even notice the difference.

Wherever you live, it is always very loud! It is almost impossible to study in your dorm; I spent a lot of time in the library.

UCSB has a reputation of being a "party school." Party school is the first thing that people say when I tell them I attend to UCSB. UCSB is so much more than the pre-conceived notion that proceeds its reputation.

It seems to me that the worst thing about my school, is the amount of social pressure being put on the students to conform to ideas of "cool". I see so many young men and women looking exactly the same, acting the same, and in general being hemongenous. It is sad to see so many young people think of college as an extention of high school instead of a new oppurtunity.

I think there is too much focus on beer drinking and partying.

That's a hard one. I guess the worst thing about the school would have to be the lagoon on campus. It smells terrible at certain times of the year. Besides that it's not bad.

There is a lot of partying around campus, which is fine if you go in for that sort of thing, but I don't. It sort of detracted from the learning experience for me because every one else is focused on partying.

The Financial aid people arent very friendly. Our student health center is not very good

What I consider to be the worst thing about my school is the fact that it's known mainly for being the party school. My school is more than just that. Though, sometimes there are many who party and there are tons of parties that go around, my school also has great education, programs, and events. I hope that people will see past the party school mask and see what UCSB is really about.
