University of Wisconsin-Whitewater Top Questions

I absolutely love the experience I have had so far at UW-Whitewater. However, if I had to choose something bad about my school, it would be the close proximity to my home. Although this has nothing to do with the school itself, I feel that living farther away from school may be more beneficial for me. Because I live only 15 minutes from Whitewater, I can come home a lot. Although this is very nice at times, I think it somewhat limits the amount of independence I have, something that often helps college students mature into responsible adults.

The worst thing I would have to say about my school would have to be the food. The dining halls that we have do not have the best of food. They also do not offer the best meal plans, they do not allow you to use more than one meal during the week for a friend or something. They do, however, offer enough food offered in one meal plan to fill you up.

I do not have a worst thing to say about my school.

The way money is wasted.

I do not feel anything bad about school, but I do feel the pressure of doing my best in school and sports.

The worst thing about my school is how small the town is. The only reason that the town is alive is because of the school so when everyone goes home for the summer or winter, the town becomes a ghost town. The closest big city we have is Janesville which is around 25 to 30 minutes away. It makes shopping and otherwise doing activities off campus much more of a road trip opposed to maybe simply walking down the street or taking a 10 minute car drive.

They pamper any student that is a minority or shows any kind of learning disability real or imagined.

It is a suitcase campus so a lot of kids go home on weekends.

The worst thing is that everyone goes home on the weekends and Whitewater becomes a ghost town.

I think the worst thing about the schoool is the maintanance of the roads and sidewalks in the winter because they don't plow or salt until there is already a layer of two inch thick ice on the road and it makes getting places really dangerous.
