Minnesota State University-Mankato Top Questions

The worst thing I would consider at Minnesota State University, Mankato would be the lack of diversity because diversity has played a big role in my life, I have friends of different ethnicities and even my family comes from different background. It is important to know and welcome people that does not look the same as one and endure eachother by excepting differences in physical features and spiritually. I feel as if it was more diversity on campus people will be appreciated more and more prepared for what the future holds.

The worst thing about this school is the lack of commitment it seems like many of the undergradutes come here with. The students don't set the bar high enough for themselves so it makes the university as a whole look as though it is dropping the ball when in fact it is the students themselves doing the damage.

I think the weather is one of the downsides of any school in Minnesota, and even that has not been too freezing lately. I recommend living in the newer dorms on campus, since the old "Gage Complex" is a walk away from the academic buildings and the stairs can be annoying if you live on any floor above the sixth. That said, we also have a close community here in Gage, so it's not all negative.

The worst thing about my school is the students who are not involved in activities, who don't participate in class discussions or ostricise people who do participate.

hard to get into some classes, some classes are only available certain semesters

not enough to do around town

Low diversity

the parking because it is so far away and the parking pass are expensive

Some degrees are difficult to get into

The worst thing about my school is the lack of school spirit. It is just as likely to find a USC or North Dakota State shirt as a Minnesota State Mankato shirt on campus.
