University of Rhode Island Top Questions

What's the most frustrating thing about University of Rhode Island?

Rachael

It is frustrating when you're sitting in class with kids who don't care. I'm in school because I'm trying to be someone and get somewhere and it's frustrating when people take for granted the education that's sitting right in front of them. There are kids in our own country who would kill to go to a university, and yet there's kids who blow off school. It's a shame.

Oluseyi

The most frustrating thing at my school is distractions, because you could get distracted by all your surroundings

Lindsay

Certain classes are only offered during spring or fall semesters.

Alyssa

My commute to the school.

Chelsea

Some of the peole still stick to high school ideals.

Amanda

The most frustrating thing at URI would probably be the dorms in freshman year. There are usually roudy people who like to stay up late and be loud. This is really frustrating especially when you have 8am classes.

Katherine

Some of the instructors are not the caliber I was used to from high school, it is very discouraging, especially when they are disorganized and have a large class; also the old, in need of repair dorms.

Meagan

The most frustrating thing about URI is that sometimes you cannot get a permission number for a class that you need to take. I find that they give out permission numbers to students who don't even need to take the class.

Christopher

The most frustrating thing about my school is that sometimes the professors do not give back your grades until almost the end of the semester. This is an inconvenience because you are always on the edge with your grades and you never really know what grade you have. Also parking is hard to find close to campus.

Where it's located and some of the people.
