the worst thing about Christopher Newport Univeristy is that it is not racially diverse

Teanna

1. Construction: because it takes away from the beauty of the school. 2. Diversity: I seen many people of different races at this school, but those people are low in numbers. 3. Parking: It is hard to find places to park, yet you have to pay for an expensive parking decal.

One of the worst things about CNU is also one of the best. We have on-going and constantly shifting construction zones spread across our campus, which sometimes make it difficult to navigate the area and get to class on time. However, this problem is actually an advantage because it provides our student population with new, up-to-date facilities.

Meredith

The worst thing about CNU is that we are not well known enough. And we are also getting more selective.

Erica

The worst thing about my school is the parking because for students there is never that much parking and students sometimes have to park in restricted areas and end up getting parking tickets.

Nicola

The worst thing about Christopher Newport University is also one of the best things. Students love small class sizes that foster discussion and class participation but the small size also provides a scheduling night-mare when all of the seats have been taken during regisitration.

Katie

Small class sizes are Christopher Newport University are both a curse and a blessing. While allowing better interaction with the professor and improved class discussions, it makes getting into specialized classes very competitive. Enrollment in classes is decided by your year and whether or not you are in the President's Leadership Program. It can be frustrating to see PLP students of a lower grade level enrolling in classes you need before you have the option.

As a second semester freshman, I really don't have any negative problems with Christopher Newport University. It has been a great experience for me.

Again, the social life suffers as a result of the alcohol viewpoints and policy. Due to the policy/viewpoint, there is a drop-out of students because of transfers and suspensions. It is an academically rich school with wonderful professors that can really teach life skills and material, but not all stay because they are driven away by a lack of social life. Social life is important in any setting, particularly in college. Especially in today's perspective, college is the time to experiment and broaden horizons, however this is prevented by a lack of social setting.
