The only bad thing about San Jose is that it is in a bad neighborhood so always rememeber to walk with a group of people instead of alone.

This school is suppose to be a four year institution but instead it is turning into a five year institution. Less than 20{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the students graduate in four years. Students in the animation program are expected to graduate in 5 to 7 years. Students are not warned before signing up for this school or programs. Due to learning this in my third week of school in an animation major assembly, i had to rethink my college experience. I had to switch from the animation program to graphic design, to save me money.

Greenpeace hangs around and bothers me.

How difficult it can be to access healthier food options without spending a fortune. We have a dining commons but sometimes the food doesn't always have the best options. The salad bar can be unattractive or not well prepared. I also don't like how just anyone can walk onto our campus. I understand it's an open campus but the safety rate can be unnerving sometimes.

I sometimes fear for my safety as I see on the local news of campus crimes such as robberies, etc. In addition, the campus is in an urban (large city) area where many homeless and high crime happenings exist exactly where the campus sits. Moreover, I have been lately nervous about any school campus as today in the US, the school shooting and decreased safety events seem to be increasing.

Financial is not distributed on a merit basis. So although I did exceptional last semester and got a 4.0, I am still not receiving any aid. Whereas students who do not do academically well tend to receive financial aid due to need. I believe everyone should receive a college education. However, I am now struggling to pay for tution.

The quality of the some of the teachers isn't as great as i'd like it to be. I wish they were more engaging and nice.

SJSU is a California state school and has been suffering greatly during the economic crisis. The tuition is too high.

The wost thing about my school is that they are not much one-on-one with teachers unless you visit them during their office hours. The best thing about my major (Biology), is that not many people want to do it, so we get a lot more attention from our advisors because they deal with less students as oppose to with other advisors.
