The grading system. There is a plus (+) and minus (-) system here that can wreak havoc on your GPA. I don't think it's fair that you can get a B+ or an A- but you cannot get an A+. I'd rather just have a B or a C because the minus makes it difficult to improve your grade point average if you don't do as well as you thought. Also, there is so much riding on one or two exams; it would help to have more graded assignments.

The worst thing about my school would be the punctuality and time-management of the advisors. Many times the academic advisors are late to one-on-one meetings and are generally unresourceful when searching for information on scholarships.

Since my school is known as a party school, students are viewed as ignorant drunks. I dislike this beceause if it was true, East Carolina would not have one of the best music programs, computer science programs, or medical programs in the state

I believe that night safety is the worst thing about attending East Carolina University. There is just not enough lights on campus. This semester I have a night class from 6:30- 9:30 so when I get out it is pitch black outside. I live at Pirates Cove which is up the rode so I ride the bus home at night. Walking from my classroom to the bus stop is very dangerous because it is so dark and "deserted" at night. Someone could easily be assulted, kidnapped, or worse...

Honestly, I can't think of anything bad to say about ECU. I still live in Greenville and like the town but I might have to go outside of ECU with my complaint and say that there isn't a whole lot to do in Greenville.

The transportatio system because it does not cycle frequently enough to be convenient and does not go to all necessary locations.

The worst thing about my school is the parking. Since there is a huge off-campus living, it is hard to find a place to park for classes. Most apartment complexes have shuttle buses that come every ten minutes. If you miss it you might be late to class.

I think the worst thing about my school is probably their promptness on certain things, it sometimes takes a while for the office ladies to respond or comprehend what you are saying especially with important financial aid questions. Other than that I love it here.

While East Carolina is an exceptional school, it's location can be an issue. Greenville is somewhat isolated in Eastern North Carolina. Many students do exceptionally well at ECU, and grow to love the area, but the lack of available opportunities drives them out of the region. I believe that if ECU was more accessible to job and internship opportunities, it would rise far above many universities as one of the greatest academic institutions. However, because students have to go so far for jobs, internships, and opportunities, the school is often overlooked.
