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

The worst thing about my school is that my campus could be more environmentally friendly. The computer sites and department offices, in general, use up so much paper from all the printing and copying that student and staff do. There could be more recycle bins for paper and cans/bottles around campus and in dormitory buildings to control garbage. Dining areas should change take-out packaging and utensil usage to be more environmentally safe. I always try to do what I can to be less wasteful and if these changers were to take place, hopefully more people would too.

LACK OF INFORMATION AVAILABLE ABOUT RESOURCES ON CAMPUS. STUDENTS WHO ARE FIRST GENERATION COLLEGE STUDENTS IN THEIR FAMILIES CAN VERY EASILY GET LSOT IN THE SYSTEM. THERE ARE FAR TOO MANY STUDENTS WHO END UP TRANSFERING OR LEAVING THE SCHOOL BASED ON THE ACADEMIC STRESS LEVEL OR DIFFICULTY WHICH COULD BE PREVENTED IF RESOURCES WERE ADVERTISED BETTER.
