Boise State University Top Questions

Not enough variety of times for classes for non traditional students.

Compared to many other college campuses around the country, there seems to be a relatively small area immediately around the campus that caters to college students. Off-campus activities and places are limited and seem hard to find at first, but after a little bit of searching and creativity one can usually find what they need.

The immaturity of my classmates which causes disruptions in the classroom environment.

The thing that I consider bad about my school is the focus that they put on the sport teams. They seem to offer mre scholarships to students that are involved in sports at the college level.

The worst thing about Bloomsburg University would have to be the high amounts of smokers. Most schools try to control smoking and outlaw it in certain areas or just not allow it on the campus entirely. But the admistrators at Bloom are slacking and it's difficult walking through the school grounds with smoke being blown into your face, especially for people like me who are allergic to the nasty smoke. There are probably many other items that are not the best at Bloomsburg but smoking is probably one of the most annoying, aggravating activities that take place throughout campus.

Hard to connect with other students sometimes.

The worst thing about my school is the negative attention we receive from the press and other schools. Although we have a great sports program at BSU, our academic departments deserve the same respect. It gets tiring and annoying to hear numerous people complaining about all the attention our football team gets. I did not choose Boise State for its Bowl wins, nor will I stay here for that reason. What I would like to see is positive coverage about all aspects of our school and not just about our football coach and players.

The strength of the Environmental Studies program offered through the university is mediocre. There have been numerous courses that have been informative and interesting but few that have been supportive of the desire I have in pursuing this degree. Although the program is very young within the university I do not feel as though it will become a trademark of my university.

I honestly can't think of anything. I've had to sit and think about it and nothing comes to mind.

The worst thing about my school I would have to say is a classes I am in. The class is extremely difficult and requires extensive amount of studying. I knew this when I signed up and am not complaining about that, but the tests are another story. Sometimes the tests have multiple choices with answers a-j instead of a-d and even sometimes have averages around 60{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c}. This could be an indicator that something has to change about how the class is taught. I know this doesnt necessarily reflect on the school but its all I can think of.
