I am not a big fan of there food on campus. It would be best to have a car to eat out at Lumberton, which is 10 minutes away from campus. They have disgusting cafeteria food!

One of the most frustrating things I have begun to notice around the campus of UNCP is the violence. As a student who resided off campus, I have begun to see an increase in burglaries in and around the apartments.

While hoping that increased security around the apartments would decrease the violence, this attempt failed as my neighbor was followed into her apartment and robbed at gunpoint.

My school is a very different compared to the place i'm from people wave and say hi, but here they just work pass you like they don't even see you but the trick that helped me get pass that was realizing that this isn't home and i shouldn't expect strangers to be that open with me. Its the real world and you just roll with the punches or any kind of hang up you come across.

No one is friendly here at this school. Parking is terrible. You have to bring transportation or you are stuck. Teachers are not always friendly, well actually no one is.
