Auburn University Top Questions

The worst thing about Auburn is registering for classes at the end of each semester. Students with the most credit hours are considered first priority and usually get into the classes they want. Students with the least amount of credit hours have to diligently search for ways to get into classes that are either closed or full.

The only thing that I can think of is that the food plan is not that good. You are given about 1000 dollars on your student tiger card. Then they don't have any real cafeterias where you can go to get food. They just have basically random restuarants scatttered through out campus and whatever the price was for your food they deduct off of you card. Some of the resturants are good but they also have places such as Chick-fil-a and Papa John's. Having these restuarants can tempt students to eat unhealthly.

The worst thing about Auburn is the meal plan. There are some great places to eat on campus. But, the university charges the student who lives on campus $1000 each semester. Not only is it too much money for a student to spend per semester, but there are consequences if you don't spend all your money. If you have any money leftover, the university gets it. This is not fair to the parent's or students who are paying for it. It would make more sense to require students who live on campus to have $500 per semester.

The most bothersome thing I have noticed thus far is the lack of desire to learn by the students. College is often portrayed as one big party, however I figured since time is money when attending college, people would become more serious and have their priorities in line. I was discouraged when I found out my generation does not comprehend that now is the time to obtain knowledge in order to better ourselves for the future. Nevertheless, I remain confident that one day soon they will realize the time has come to make a change.

The worst part of Auburn was leaving. Unfortunately, there's not much in the town for career opportunities since it's mainly a 'college town.' If the town of Auburn could have a better market for graduates, I would've stayed there.

The food services. Choices are like a food court at the mall for the most part. You have to be careful to choose wisely. On weekends or holidays, many of the choices are not open. There are a few other food service choices that I don't get a chance to use much because of their locations on campus.

There are people who have racist tendencies because of limited experiences with diversity. Also the majority of the student's here are republican so if you feel uncomfortable with their opinions you may struggle to feel your opinions politically are welcomed.

On the weekends there is not much to do and the campus dining is all closed except terrell dining hall.

The food. I just get ired of eating the same thing over and over. Hopefully the situation will be better this semester, the contruction of the new food court is supposed to be finished.

There are not alot to do off campus for students and the college is not as diversified as I feel it should be including the instructors as well.
