Marquette University Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about Marquette University? Why?

Joanna

Probably the lack of diversity - while there is a Global Village and exchange students, there is not as much diversity on campus (with students or faculty).

Molly

The fact that it's in the city makes it a little scary to walk around at night.

Nathaniel

Location of campus inside a higher than average crime rate.

Emerson

The amount work that needs to be done for each class and how little time there is to finish it and the amount the tuition is for the amount of value we recieve from it.

Emily

the winter.

Joseph

Really cold in the winters, but seriously it is in the city so sometimes it might be a little too much for people who arent used to a city

Kelly

The worst thing about Marquette is that most students drink on or around campus, and not much disciplenary action is taken. However, there are many activities that Marquette puts on for students to provide another outlet for students who do not drink. Also, the food in the cafeteria is not the best. Plus, some of them close by 6:30, so you have to eat dinner earlier, which is weird.

Peter

It's easy to burn out on students here who are far too enthusiastic about attending Marquette.

Dave

the dorms for the most part aren't the greatest (with some major exceptions) and the cost of the school is a bit expensive but worthwhile

Jennifer

Unfortunately, we do live in a city so crime rates tend to be higher than the average school. Luckily, we're at a university that cares about the welfare of its students and if problems persist, they are quick to take action. We have one of the top-rated saftey programs in the nation. If you're smart about the way you go around campus and the city, you'll be fine.
