Texas A & M University-Commerce Top Questions

Everthing about TAMUC is amazing so there is no worst thing.

The dissolution of the american dream. Its funny how students seem to think just getting a college education is enough. Its not. And that is the way it should be. The capital T truth is, nothing easy achieviing and worth having. More often than not, students get a sense of entitlement about having a higher education. It's a crying shame, what this university should do (and every university) is a teach a reality 101 course detailing the grim reality that all students need to realize. Nothing is given, but earned.

At TAMUC there is nothing that makes this University worse this is a great school for beginners and transfer students, everyone makes you feel welcome. Coming from me, I'm a transfer student coming in as a Junior and this first semester here everyone was very friendly when I first arrived. Also living on campus it was a really great start, me coming from a household where our family is really close and never lived away from each other, this school made it to where I wouldn’t have to worry about anything because they made it feel like home.

The worst thing about this campus would be the lack of scholarships for the average, hardworking student.

The only bad thing about the school is some of the roads, which they are fixing. If you can oversee that, it's pretty amazing.

The worst thing about my school might be that the community is to rural for me becasue I am a city girl. But besides the open space, I am trying to take it as a new way to challenge myself in becoming more independent and focused on my studies. Eventhough the rural community would be hard to adjust to at first, I know that in the long run this expirience will benifit me in my future.

N/A

The worst thing about my University is the Dining Serives. The food lackes taste and luster and if you want to host an event on campus you have to use there services.

The school has an on going bed bug problem. This is just disgusting, amny students wake up with bites all over their bodies, and the school's extermination process is not adequate. The school does not have a student organization for Native American students. I am Native American and feel that my culture is severely left out.

It is not extremely urban. It is located in a small town, yet many students prefer to live in a smaller town. School spirit is just coming out of the dead phase. It used to be almost completely extinct, but now is rapidly on the rise.

Texas AM Commerce worst attraction is that the college is the main attraction in the town. It has the basics to survive in the town such as: gas station, Wal-Mart, corner store, day care, and banks. However, it’s so condense that you’re literally walking around in a circle. None the less it’s not a horrible town makes it easy to study.

There isn't much around the town, besides the school.

The worst thing about this campus is the lack of alumni support. I work in the phonathon department, and a lot of our alumni are not willing to give back to the school. A lot of them don't even feel connected with the university. It's hard to grow as a campus without support.

The worst thing about commerce is the lack of things to do in the surrounding area.

De worst thing about Texas A&M Commerce it appears that you need to have some time of influences or know someone from the faculty staff in order to get a Job or Graduate Assistance Position.

I would consider the administrative organization to be the worst aspect of the school because it causes many students to lose time and money by not being directed to the right people and resources.

I think the worst thing about this school is the lack of school spirit and the fact that our campus doesnt feel like a community, it feels like there are very segregated clicks of people. People here sometimes lack the will to succeed here.

There is always construction going on around campus. It is very difficult for studying.

Commerce is a very small town and doesn't have much to do outside of the campus. It is slow going on the weekends and you have to go to the next city over to find something really entertaining to do besides drink.

Is hard to get stuff done if your not a freshman, like add/drop, register and that stuff. They need a few more people for just those services.

The worst thing about my school is the living arrangement for students with kids, or even students that are married. We have to live in almost 50 year old dorms. The freshmen and other students get newer living arrangements. They have new apartments that are not connected to the school that you have to pay out of pocket and they are really expensive. I feel we should be allowed to live i a nice well built environment especailly being that we have little children that need a safe place to live. Other then that the school is a great place!

I think the worst thing about my school is that it is too far away from a major city. A 20-60 minute drive is required for anyone wanting to get out and do fun things. Everyone leaves on the weekend, so unless you like watching T.V. and studying, there isn't much for you on weekends.

Academically speaking, professors relied too heavily on lecture forms of instructions as opposed to implementing various media. Tests were generated for only paper and pen/pencil responses. In other words, tests relied on the "remember and regergitate" format, as opposed to applying the information for real world experiences.

None

The availability of parking spaces. I live across town from the University and I leave my house 30 minutes early to try and find a parking spot and there is not enough space for all of the students who are attending the University to park so you drive around forever and sometimes are late to class because there isn't an available spot to park.

There isn't much to do in the town. Which can be agood thing, but it gets pretty dead.

As a new student, I do not have much to say! I suppose the worst thing is that it's a bit of a drive from Commerce to my hometown in Rowlett. I get homesick.

There is no school spirit. Hardly anyone goes to sporting events to wears clothing and accessories to support our school.

I'm pleased with the university's performance. It's what you put in to it.

Some of the dorms on campus have been neglected over the years, but there are renovations underway to correct this.

School unization in one aspect. I guess school spirit. I think all the students should be united in one factor, whether it be school spirit or what kind of pizza we like. On this campus I don't see that unity.

I in all honesty can not think of anything bad to say about this school. I really do not like having to walk to different buildings in the rain or cold but I think that is just a part of college life.

The worst thing about my school is the fraternity and sorority organizations. They are too cliquish and socialize way too much!

How there is not much to do on the weekednd
