The other students who live in the dorms aren't always considerate. There are limited career opportunities. There's no wireless internet.

There isn't much of an environment surrounding the campus. It's very hard to find a job, and there arent any recreational activities or venues for miles.

The most frustrating thing about my school is that some of the students there choose not to take the full advantage of the education they have before them and the chance they have to get a great career and succeed.

Daniel

That I have to pay for it myself

Maryann

The racial tension is frustrating. I come from a racially diverse hometown and was taken aback when I moved here. It feels like we are back in the 1960's when the blacks and whites were segregated.

Monica

I think the most frustrating thing about Penn State is when professors allow students to talk in class. Often students are being very disruptive and this is either ignored or allowed. This type of behavior affects other students who are trying to learn. Disruptive students should be made to leave the classroom. I believe doing this would train them how to behave in the classroom and teach them a lesson on how acting that way is unacceptable.

Julie

Some of my professors are a little crazy about their attendance policy. I am a single mom of two kids and it is sometimes hard to find a sitter for a sick child so I can attend class and thus sometimes need to miss.

Lisa

The nursing program to which I have applied requires that I remain on a wait list.

Teresa

The administration offices and staff.

Sometimes the students on campus act in inappropriate manner for a college campus. It is sometimes difficult to find a quiet workspace since some students do not abide by the campuses guidelines.

Caitlin

The classrooms are always cold.

Jessica

The most frustrating part of UCF is the lack of student parking.

Rebecca

If you do not have acar on-campus or while you are attending, you will not be able to do a lot of things. We have a shuttle bus, but they are only run at certain times/days.

Justine

It's relatively small compare to other compus.

Tyler

Nothing really. I like it a lot.

John

PS schuylkill is a small branch campus, most students are only there for two years. My age difference, personal interests, and hobbies don't seem to collaberate well with the majority of the student body. I have trouble with not having anything to do in my spare time, and no one to spend time with. I would like to be able to transfer to University Park a year early due to more learning opportunities for an ME major, and already having close friends there, which could be very beneficial to my studies. Instead Im stuck wasting a lot of time.

Gregory

The most frustrating thing about Penn State Schuylkill is the lack of choices when it comes to majors.
