Pennsylvania State University-Penn State Erie-Behrend College Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?

Marquis

In all honesty aside from the lack of adorable options for living off campus, the worst thing about my school has to be the kind of food offered on campus. I reside at the off campus apartments and thus I do my own groceries; however, it is a downer whenever I am on campus and hungry that there is not a very appetizing and appealing selection of food and so I tend to go the time that I'm on campus without eating.

Randi

The worst thing about my school would have to be that there are only two places on campus to eat. I understand that it is a relativly small campus, but only a handful of places deliver so there is a lack of varierty of places to eat. Also, there is a limited amount of food one can make in the microwave, which does not help.

Financial aid constantly giving student the run around. Psychology counselors ignoring the issues some student presented. Student Affair faculty not addressing harassment and/or bullying.

Emily

Being type one diabetic, it is important for me to be very healthy. I feel like the food options on campus are very poor, for someone who needs to know the nutritional value of food items it becomes more of a hassle than anything.

John

The classes are very difficult and fast-paced. If you don't study and stay focused, you will probably flunk your classes.

Courtney

I really do like pretty much everything about my school. For me personally it is the distance from home, because its about 4 hours away. I don't go home a lot because I really do like it here but when I do go home the drive is just really long. The other things I don't like about my school is the weather, we get a lot of snow. However, as said by many, the only thing you can do about the weather is talk about it. So its a small thing for a great school.

Daniel

Snow Removal because there seems to be too few people to take care of the paths on campus. This causes hard conditions after a snow.

Joseph

Most of the students at Penn State Behrend are commuters. They either travel from home or nearby apartments. This makes it difficult to meet people and make new friends. This also means that ther's very little on campus housing, so local landlords capitalize on this by charging higher rents.

Jenna

The worse thing about my school is the availability of on campus housing and food services.

Patrick

There are only 3 places on campus to get food.

Tim

i don't know...

Angelica

For myself personally, the food and weather is hard to cope with. Over half the year you are in school, you will be walking through tons of snow! It becomes quite dangerous at times for comuters and for faculty with longer drives to get to campus. The food to be perfectly honest is not ver healthy and I think is the reason many students feel weary and not energized all the time.
