University of Connecticut Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about University of Connecticut? Why?

Nolan

I think the worst thing about the school is the communication between the high up faculty and the students. From a students perspective it seems as if certain things have been completely neglected or over looked, like the grass getting replaced instead of better showers, or the lack of decent plowing on a timely manner. This also leads to seem like the sports players are favorited.

The intese crackdown on parties / drinking. I get it, that's not the image the school wants, it was us to be safe. But it's crossed the line, it's angered the student body, and causes us to be only more reckless in efforts to have fun. We work hard throughout the week, why can't we have a little fun? College is supposed to be the times of our lives but if we're kept being told "no" how can it be?

The worst thing about my school has to be the amount of money that tution costs. I think that it is a bit expensive and that many students go into debt taking out loans in order for them to attend. If i could change one thing is for the school to give more financial aid or for tuition to go down.

Margaret

The excessive drinking not only by underage persons but by legal persons as well. The common theme I've noticed is "I skipped class to drink" or "10am? time for a shot".

Guillermo

I hate to consider it, but I live in a more rural campus, where the building have not been renovated and rather they are falling apart. If Uconn would pay more attention to other campus rather than the main one. The reason why I hate this because of the integrity of the school will go down if you go to local campuses when it is the same education.

Sarah

The worst thing about UConn when I was attending, was the lack of amenities. For example, the work out facilities were very small in comparison to the size of the campus population and the parking situation was terrible for students and very expensive. However, over the four years I attended school there the administration listened to students concerns regarding these issues and are working on making changes such as more parking and a state of the art gym.

STHEFANY

I do not have any previous experiences in my school, therefore, I can not consider anything to be the worst thing about my school.

Rebecca

If you are unmotivated to learn it is easy to "get by". In my opinion this is a waste of money and the school should pay more attention to the students who do little or no work and just manage to pass classes. This type of student is not good for the school and it is not good for the student either. Other options should be explored and encouraged.

There is nothing bad about my school

Isaac

The worst thing about my school is that they do not care if you fail. I guess that's how every college is, but I get that feeling here more than I should. Some teachers do not care about your grade, and will even unfairly test you on problems or situations you were not taught how to handle in lecture.
