The only thing I have to complain about at WMU is the parking! It is fiendishly difficult to find parking sometimes. It seems with the amount I am paying to be here, I should have guaranteed parking. Don't get me wrong, WMU is my dream school and I absolutely love it here, but parking is terrible for commuting students as well as those living on campus.

The fact that the cafeterias close early on the weekends because it is hard to eat dinner before 6 o'clock.

I consider the worst thing about my school to be parking lot restrictions for people who pay for parking passes. I believe that if you pay $300 for a semester to park, you should have more options available for parking. I understand if you don't have a pass, but if you do the authorities should be more lenient. Other than that, Western is GREAT!

The worst thing about school is the stress. I didn't expect it to affect me so badly, however, I struggled with keeping calm and relaxed especially around exam time. I learned to take time for myself. I started exercising regularly and made sure I had time to do things I enjoy.

The worst thing about my school would be the landscaping. There are alot of hills you have to go up and down to get to class.

The worst thing about my school is the weather. I personally dont like the snow or cold weather.

Lake effect + hills = lots of long walks up hill in the snow! But hey, it's good exercise. Also, the Honors advising is a little lacking; but that usually doesn't interfere with graduation or finding classes. College/departmental academic advisors more than make up for it!

The worst thing about my school is its reputation as a party school. While partying is frequent on campus and that is why many students come here, it is not why I am here and I don't like the reputation of 'Wastern' when it is actually a great school that is very pro-active, advanced, and does great research.

The worst thing about Western Michigan University was it's College of Education offices. When it came to signing up for classes, one advisor would tell you one thing, and another advisor would tell you something else. I felt communication could have been much better than what it was.

The worst thing about Western Michigan University is that there tends to be a high focus on research for the professors. This is only a big problem when you are taking classes outside of your major. When the professors are teaching you within your major it can be a great way to get involved early on in your higher education.
