Schreiner University Top Questions

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

Kelsey

Though I am enjoying my classes and the convenience of receiving one-on-one with my professors, I wish more students attended this university to give it more of a diverse feel.

Christopher

The worst thing about my school is that the required courses often distract from courses actually necessary to your major. This means that a course in a subject you are not strong in may come along and you are required to take it, damaging your GPA.

Santos

I consider the worst thing about Schreiner University that it is completely lonely on the weekends and that their is not enough activities to do on the weekends.

Brittany

The worst part about Schreiner is that fun events are well advertised across campus, but things such as when class registration is or move in day is not advertised through email or flyer. Also, the internet connection on campus is not very reliable which makes it difficult some times to complete project or homework that requires the internet.

Amanda

The worst thing about Schreiner is that it is located in an area where there is not much to do. For example, you can easily go out to the movies, dinner, or go out to the river/nature trails, but if you want to go "clubbing" or shopping or do anything in town you have to drive at least an hour to do so.

Eloy

Some decisions of what it decides to use money with. (ex: rebuilding a sidewalk when it is not necessary, but just for visual appeal)

Cory

The worst part of Schreiner University is that it costs a lot to go there.

Kara

The worst thing about our school is the lack of school spirit. As cheer captain it is very important to me to get students involved.

Stefaney

Some of the buildings are older and it makes our school look less elite. It would be nice to see some newer ones. It would make the school seem better.

Michael

Walking across campus; it's pretty big but you gotta walk everywhere.

Ethan

On campus parking is a little limited.

Daniel

The cost. Of course this applies to all schools now, especially private universities, but it's pretty expensive to attend here. However, if you did well in high school, there are a number of (big) scholarships available to you. We also have a active financial aid office that sends out emails periodically about scholarships (that's how I got here).

Andrea

The food could be better because I have noticed not a lot of students eat in the cafeteria.

Erin

Sometimes on the weekends it is hard to find fun activites to partake in because of the small size of Kerrville. However, San Antonio is only an hour away from the school but most college students don't have the money for gas to travel to San Antonio for fun.

Herschel

The worst thing has to be the distance. I'm not talking about the hour and a half drive to get here from my house either. The students just don't seem to want to meet new people. I find myself straining to get to know some students and become at least friends ,but nothing seems to work. Maybe that will change.

Kelley

Nothing really, I like it very much. The coaches help you and the professsors are there for you too. There is study classes and people always there helping each other.

Rebecca

What can be seen as my school's worst thing, can also be considered a good thing. It's a very small school and the town it's in is very small, so there's not always a lot of things to do, but a smaller school means everyone knows each other better and smaller classes mean more attention from teachers.

Ruben

There are really no bad things to discuss.

Colton

The price of housing on campus is much too expensive for the quality of living.

Jasmine

you have to drive 50 miles to get to a big mall or club for recreation

Rylie

The lack of things to do on the weekends in town. Kerrville isn't too exciting, walmart is the most exciting place or the small movie theater. But it's not a big busy city with is the positive side.

Kyle

It is in a small town, so there is not as much to do off campus as at some other universities.

Christa

One of my teachers or the food. The amount of space in my residence hall.

Genevieve

The worst thing about Schreiner University is the extremely small size and gossip that seems to circulate and envade every coner of every room. I guess it is so small, people have nothing better to do than gossip about relationships, parties, sports, teachers, and the everyday talk between college students.

Tyler

It is far away from the city of Dallas, which is where I live; 5 hours to be exact.

Gabriella

Since the school is so small people are more likely to learn about unwanted personal business which relates back to high school days. Also, the town itself is small, making it hard to find fun activities to do off campus.

Seth

The worst thing about Schreiner University is the fact that it is located in a small town. It being in a small town makes it boring in the way that there is nothing to do around town that is exciting.

Chelsea

Limited class selection and a complicated course rotation system, due to small population of the school.

William

The dining services.

Stephanie

The worst time about Schreiner University is most definately the town that it is located in. It's population is short of 20,000 and is a retiree town. I really do love Schreiner though the school is small and you are able to truly concentrate on school. The people here are so friendly and you truly become friends with your professor and they have time for you, I just wish the town was a bit bigger so when I'm not focused on school I can escape for a few hours to relax.

Aaron

the dust in our rooms is ridiculous!

Sovreyne

Some of the buildings don't have hot water in the sinks and the temperature cannot be controlled from each individual room.

Roy

The fact that Schreiner is located in such a rural town is the worst. It's very difficult to go out and have fun without having to drive all the way to San Antonio. The only means of fun here is Wal-Mart. There are no clubs, bars, or much of anything really. We have no Burger King! This town isn't really meant for the people who NEED to have a big city life. The speed limit is 30 mph everywhere you go! And that is frustrating. We basically have to live like old people.

Tyler

The biggest down fall of Schreiner University I think woud have to be that there is nt a football team. I think that Schreiner would benifit in many ways reinstating the program and continuing the traditions.

Samantha

That there isn't much to do in the town that it's located.

Ann

I would consider the lack of strong body of African Americans because diversity is what attracts more students. I feel that my college experience would be more memorable if this problem were to be solved.

Hunter

Freedom of un-american expression and the support that it gets.

Monica

KERRVILLE, TEXAS and the country life. Not much to do.

Stephen

The isolation and bordom
