University of Oklahoma-Norman Campus Top Questions

The worst aspect of the University of Oklahoma is the sprinkler systems. Quite often, the sprinklers are watering the sidewalks and volleyball courts, instead of watering the grass. The sprinklers are usually off centered, which causes this provblem.

It's too conservative and most students on campus don't care about relevant social, economic, political, and international issues. Religion (Christianity) has too much weight here for the students. A lot of Baptist students tried to convert me, especially in the dorms.

Honestly I dont think there is anything bad about the University of Oklahoma. It is really up to the student to decide whether he/she has bad experiences or not. I personally really enjoyed my freshman year in college. I met some great friends and teachers that greatly impacted me. I became apart of a solid group of guys in a greek organization and became an integral part of its leadership. My hometown is in Conroe, TX so my only complaint about my illustrious college is the distance from home.

The worst thing is by far the cost, the school itself has fantastic resoursces. However, the administration of the school does seem to been unyielding in it's pursuit of of money.

The worst aspect is parking. There isn't enough parking for the number of students who drive to school. It's always difficult to park in the parking garage directly next to the Catlett Music Center. I've paid good money for a parking permit and seeing as I'm a Music Education major who's in Catlett from 8 or 8:30 am to 5:30 pm at night, I deserve the right to park in the parking garage without difficulty. All I ask is to park right next to the building my classes are in without difficulty.

The worst thing about the University of Oklahoma is possibly the extensive campus. I feel like it is too much of a hassle to walk to the library because it is too far of a walk with a large amount of books weighing you down. And I feel like it is so spread out and the possibility of seeing those people you know is slim. I want a more familiar area to learn in.

There is no "worst thing." I have annoyances, like the fact that the smoking policy is not enforced on campus or that a professor might cancel class fifteen minutes before hand, but nothing truly negative.

The location is the worst thing about my school. This is because it isn't located in California. I love California with a passion, because that's my home state. I would love to have gone to UCLA, but I settled for OU, which is fine. OU is a really nice school. The environment is calm and friendly. The temperature here at OU is really cold. I miss the sunshine weather and Los Angeles' famous palm trees. Also, the expenses are excruciating. All college expenses are, and I need alleviation.

I have nothing to complain about when it comes to the University of Oklahoma, however, the winter weather does make me wish for sunny days.

My school is very fractured. There is the bulk of the OU population, mostly from Oklahoma or north Texas, who tend to live largely in the Greek fraternity and sorority scene and don't necessarily focus on academic pursuits. There are also a couple hundred National Merit Scholars who were bribed to come to the school and focus wholly on academic pursuits in an isolating manner. There are obviously a bunch of cliques in between, but it is very difficult for a lot of people to find the balance that they hope to find in college.
