What do you consider the worst thing about Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania? Why?

Devin

Very spread out and the laptop computers are terrible in the library.

Ethan

It rains and snows a lot.

Kayla

The only bad thing about Slippery Rock is sometimes the weather. The summers are nice, and the fall is absoultely beautiful, but come winter, just be prepared to bundle up. The snow makes good for snowboarding, but just be cautious on your way to class. The spring semeter is pretty wet, but nothing you can't handle with an umbrella. Once it dries out, hello sunshine!

The on campus parking situation is a minor issue however, it tends to be the most negative aspect of Slippery Rock University. Parking spots available for off-campus commuters tends to be competitive. Over my years at SRU the parking situation has been improving but still has insufficient parking spots for those that are required to commute. As an off campus commuter that lives within the town, I choose to walk to campus rather that fight with others that do not have this convenience of walking and must drive.

the rain. it pretty much rains all the time and i love being outside. so when its rainy and cold, its kinda hard to do fun things to take your mind off of school like whitewater kayaking, hiking, and rock climbing. (there is a ton of that around! which is one reason i love the location of my school.)

Maria

Right now they are going through a lot of changes so there is always construction going on but after this year most of it should be finished and it will be like a brand new campus.

Sarah

It's too small. It's like a spider web of people. It's hard to keep secrets unless you really find someone who wont spill the beans. The only reason that's not bad is because it makes everyone stay honest about most things they do and say. The people are real... that's for sure.

Rachel

The worse thing about Slippery Rock University is the lack of diversity, as well as the weather. There is little diversity at this school, and the wathe gets bad in the winter.

Scott

The worst thing about this school is being social. There is a drive to get students social but mostly the organized events are corny, like concerts and things like that, but you don't really go to those kind of things to meet new people, you go with your friends and have a good time. If you do not join a Fraternity or Sorority or play a sport it seems impossible to be socially involved on campus.

I feel that the university has a lack of diversity. Most students are middle class, caucasian males and females who tend to stick with their own ethnicity when socializing.
