There is a clear lack of diversity on my college campus. I am African American and we only make up about 4{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of my college's campus with smaller percentages for other minorities. However, I do not feel unwelcome or discriminated against. It is just something I noticed that should be addressed.

The only frustrating thing about my school is the lack of study abroad scholarships. It is my dream to study abroad, and while Marquette University endorses students to travel abroad, they do not do that good of a job supplying students with the money needed to go abroad. I dream of studying abroad, traveling to places like Prague and Rome. I wish that my school had available study abroad scholarships for students who have a passion for travel and exploration but simply cannot afford it.

Marquette University is an amazing school that has attracted many talented and intelligent individuals. There is support at every turn and at this point in my college career, I don't have frustrations.

The administration is conservative and that effects the rest of the student body.

Not being able to stay connected to the university's WiFi consistently.

There is not much to complain about. A minor detail which frustrates me is the fact that sophomores must live in dorms, with no expections. Most accredited universities allow second year students to live in a house or apartment. The dorms are perfectly fine but being able to completely live on my own is something I have looked forward to for many years.

What I find to be the most frustrating at my school is the tuition and aditional costs to attend. Money plays a huge role in my education and I worry that it will begin to control future choices.

There are a lot of frustrating things at Marquette University, but the most frustrating thing there is its lofty cost. Most private and some state schools across the country have higher or the same cost. The tuition is forty thousand dollars and the cost of living in the dorms is around ten thousand.

Currently I attend Florida Atlantic University but wish to switch to Marquette University. At Florida Atlantic University, the most frustrating thing is the securtiy. The security on campus is not good. Thus far this year, there have been a number of unsolved crimes on campus. Many of these crimes involved weapons such as guns or knives. Many students do not feel safe any longer traveling alone. Our security needs to improve.

We are required to live on campus or with our parents for the first two years. Most schools only require the first year or none at all. It really isn't that bad, because Marquette wants us to feel comfortable and have a chance to get the full experience.

Today, we are extrememly accustomed to advances in technology, and more and more these advances can be found in the classroom. This is great when they can offer more resources to students, and ensure that they have the most up-to-date information at their fingertips for their reports, projects and research. However, this can also make things extraordinarily frustrating for students when their professors attempt to maximize their use of technology in the classroom. It can be confusing and stressful when you are expected to check and use multiple websites just to submit one assignment.

Marquette is a great school with great school spirit. You won't talk to even one person who isn't involved and can't say 5 things they don't like about Marquette. It's a challenging school so if you are up for a challenge, Marquette could be the place for you. I am a liberal individual and it is definitely a conservative campus and that has been a challenge for me but I would say it has made my beliefs even stronger, so don't let the Jesuit/Catholic dissuade you.

What frustrates me about the Marquette community is its diversity. Marquette lacks diversity among minorities such as Hispanics/ Latinos and African Americans. Not only do the statistics prove it, but also the way in how people interact with each other. For example people tend to socialize with people who look like them instead of expanding their group of friends.
Jenny
The most frustrating thing about Marquette is that it's not as diverse as I expected it to be. Especially growing up in an extremely diverse neighborhood and going to school with people from all different types of backgrounds was a somewhat frustrating transition to make coming here. The transition is at times frustrating, but once you get adjusted your experience depends on how you make it - how involved you are and who you surround yourself with.

The most frustrating thing about Marquette is signing up for classes due to the random sign up time. Although I understand the reason behind having the athletes, seniors, and physical training programs sign up for classes due to their demanding schedules, it is frustrating to only be able to choose once they have had first pick. The positive to this type of class scheduling is that students consider taking classes they might have never given a second thought beforehand.
Derek
The most frustrating thing about Marquette University is how students are required to take theology and philosophy classes. The classes previously mentioned are required for graduation because Marquette University is a Jesuit school. Requiring to take theology and philosophy is frustrating because those two class subjects seem random and I do not think these two classes do not fit most of the majors that Marquette offers. The number of credits a student much take for theology and philosophy depends on his/her major.
Michelle
I really cannot think of anything that was so frustrating that it bothered me. I graduated with a high school class of 18, so I would say the most frustrating part of going to college at Marquette University was attending Chemistry and Biology and the class size being over 200 students. It was a drastic change and really hard to get the one on one student teacher interaction, I was used to getting in high school.
Michael
Nothing really, just the hard work is all.
Joseph
The most frustrating thing about Marquette is it's location in the city. It has a very nice campus area and good space and architecture, but there aren't many stores close by. The closest supermarket is over a mile away by bus.
