Probably the overall student body. Although most of then have fun over the weekend, there are just too many not fun parties and school activities. You have to get lucky to find a group of kids that aren't really too far off from reality.

Catholic school

The lack of heterogeneity in terms of types of people at the school. There is a definately a recognizable schema for the typical Notre Dame student and almost everyone fits into it. Conservative, caucasian, financially well off, and usually some one else in there family has gone to Notre Dame. There really isn't too much that is controversial about our student body or all that interesting, which makes for good academics and overall "behavior" of students but makes for limited availability to interact with really creative, open minded, and interesting individuals.

Not very diverse

1) The surrounding area of our school is unsafe and getting worse every year. The school is so focused on on-campus housing that it does little to support the 30{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of students who choose to move off-campus. Also not enough fun bars. And the weather sucks. 2) There are a limited number of students who like to party and have a good time. The school is big enough that socially-minded individuals can still find parties and make lots of friends, but at times it is possible to see the same people at parties and bars every night.
