Sam Houston State University Top Questions

Advisement is horrible

The school is a suitcase campus. That means that anytime there is a break, or a weekend, or a day off, over 80{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the campus bolts. There is usually nothing happening on the weekends, and almost nothing to do.

Race is always an issue with the black people. Slow to include outside races and quick to be a victim.

I get absolutely no financial aid, and I really really need it. Plus, most ethnicities tend to band together and often claim that others are "racist".

parking for students who commute is really bad. The campus is really dark at night, meaning if you have a night class there are not many lights on campus so it does not feel very safe.

It was quite far from any big city.

The fact that there is little to do on the weekends

The worst thing about Sam Houston is the parking on campus. You pay $60 for a parking sticker and you will have to drive around for about 30 minutes to find a place to park, and you will not be able to park close to your class.

I believe the food to be the worst thing on campus. I wish there were more healthy choices for me. I never ever eat the junk food, but I sometimes have to just eat a salad because there is nothing else good to eat.

The worst part about this school is that there's too much focus on fraternity and sorority life. For that reason I believe it has caused our school to be considered "a party school". There's two nights a week that everyone goes out and parties and then they pack up on the weekend and go home. Lame.
