Kent State University at Kent Top Questions

Patriotism. I believe it is disgraceful that the Kent State Basketball team does not participate in the pregame Nationa Anthem. Also, I have almost been attacked by student organizers, because I have chosen not to answer their survey questions during heated political climates. Finally, the rhetoric from faculty during heated political times is often very skewed. I do not believe a class room is the forum to espouse political views. It is too often professors use the ignorance of students, instead of challenging both left and right wing ideology. School should be about logic, deduction, understanding, and compromise.

The worst thing about the school would be the advising department for the college of arts and sciences in Bowman Hall. And the financial aid department. Both are extremely unreliable and difficult to schedule an appointment with.

In the winter months, there's not much to do around campus. The weather is also horrible in the cold season which makes it hard to get around campus without freezing.

Well I would consider the worst thing about my school would be the staff. At times I have witnessed campus officers neglect students in need, I have seen a few of the janitorial staff members ignore their duties, and I have even caught a glimps of a few professors acting out of character. But overall I think some of the staff around campus is the worst.

There are a lot of people on campus, so it is sometimes hard to go to the library or recreational facilities without waiting around for long periods of time.

For those who don't like cold weather or high winds, Kent is not the place to go. It stays very cold in the area and Kent is a very windy town.

The amount of alcohol and drug use.

The worst thing about Kent State is its size. One would think that being surrounded by so many people would make it easier to make friends, but it is actually harder. Even though my school is not a large as many others in the country, the amount of people I learn with makes it harder to meet the friends I want to make.

The worst thing about my school is that a lot of students go home during the weekends. This is the worst thing because I am an out of state student and cannot go home and I am sometimes left alone on campus.

There are so a lot of students here who are naturally gifted at everything so it can sometimes be incredibly discouraging to those who have to give it everything they have and more to try and keep up.
