What do you consider the worst thing about Louisiana State University and Agricultural & Mechanical College? Why?

Charlene

Community College credits aren't accepted after you have taken 60 credit hours. Which means you can really inly take summer class your freshman year and maybe your sophomore year, which sucks.

Terrese

I think the worst thing at my school is the amount of partying they have on campus on a daily bases. It doesn't affect me personally, but I think that's one reason people come there.

The worst thing about LSU would have to be the traffic and roads. The roads are very out of date however much contruction is currently taking place. The traffic coming into Baton Rouge is terrible. It is almost impossible to go anywhere from 3pm until 7pm Monday through Friday.

Nathan

The classes are very big so if you want to get to know your classmates it won't happen.

Melvin

I'm not sure what I would consider the worst thing about LSU because I don't have any problems with the place, students, or faculty.

Madeline

Although it's a great school, the 27,000 people attending it makes it very hard to interact with professors and get individual attention. Professors aren't as willing to help and give individual attention when they have hundreds of students in one class.

Dominique

I cannot really say what is the worse thing about my school. I do not see anything as being bad at my school.

Louisiana State University is a huge school. The general classes tend to contain many more students than most school. This can be a distraction and a challenge for students who have a short attention span, and who need someone to hover over them to get their work done.

Courtney

The library closed on Saturdays for home games during football season, so if you are trying to complete research, it can be difficult.

Chelsey

I believe LSU isn't seen as the amazing school it really is. Louisiana is often seen as backwoods amd sup-par, but LSU has greatly prepared me for life in the work force. I feel that my experiences at LSU have helped me to build an impressive resume and have taught me the skills I will need to succeed.

Derionne

The worst thing about my school would have to be the large classes that we are sometimes put in. Courses that require individual attention, such as math and science, sometimes have as many as 800 students in one class. This makes it hard for a professor to establish a pace for the class that is comfortable for the students, and many students fall behind because of this.

Jessica

The worst thing at my school is the other students and the compitition they present. It can bring you down sometimes.

bradley

The worst thing about this school is the lack of respect, academically, from outsiders. Most people think LSU is a party school and that the education one receives is third tier. The education is actually quite good. LSU would be so much better if others recognized it for its reality versus its perception.

William

Very hard to meet people if you are not from the area.

Jessica

Not enought financial aid given out.

Eric

I would say the worse thing about the school is the prices. Everything on campus cost so much money that I often find myself spending more than I originally plan. There are meal plans that I have not been able to try, but from the view of an off-campus commuter, things can get expensive fast. Especially in recent months. Renovations on the student union has cut off many of the cheaper food restaurants I normally visit. I have since been forced to pay upwards of $7 for things like a sandwich or a bagel.

Brandon

The worst thing about my school is their insistence on this so called "flagship agenda." In my opinion, it's a waste of money.

Daisha

The worst thing is the budget cuts. It puts the students at a disadvantage.

Sharissa

The worst thing about my school is all the construction and renovating that is taking place. Also, the lack of parking for those people who have cars.

Rachael

The size of freshman classes. During my first year, I was lost in my classes that contained 200-300 people. I would have like smaller classes, like the ones I have now as a upperclassman.
