The worst thing about this school, I believe, is students don't take full advantage of the resources offered. These resources open so many doors, and create so many oppurtunities, its a shame that some of them aren't being total tapped into.

The worst thing about my school is the area surrounding it. While downtown Syracuse offers some interesting places to go to, (restaurants, bars, record stores) there is simply not enough to get me to go down there all that often. As a result, you must be absolutely secure in the fact that staying on campus for the majority of your college life won't be a problem. If anything needs work at Syracuse University, it is the city beneath it.

The worst thing about my school is the weather. Syracuse is extremely cold during different parts of the year as well as being very dreary due to the constant weather conditions. As well, for a Division I school, we have an extremely poor football team. It would be nice to go to a school like Penn State that really has pride in their winning football team.

While walking to classes is great excerise, it can get really cold. You have to be prepared for all sorts of weather, and it can be hard to stay dry if it rains. The Syracuse winters can be harsh so you have to bundle up like an explorer from the north and feel a little silly, but at least you're warm. But if the weather is all i have to complain about, ithat's a good thing.

The worst thing about Syracuse I would definitely say is the weather, which is something that obviously can't be changed or influenced. After so many months of snow and cold a general depression seems to loom over students but as soon as spring comes the morale is lifted considerably. Besides that, I would say the cost and expenses of the school are a downer, as it makes it very difficult for middle class families to afford without extensive loans and debt.

Too much of a party school- too many frat parties, too much underage drinking.

Syracuse University is a big school. Because of this it isn't hard to get lost in the crowd. Many of the core classes are in huge lecture halls and teachers have to have multiple TAs to help teach classes. If you don't make an attempt to stick out and talk to your teachers they won't be able to help you. This can make it difficult for students who are the most outgoing such as myself. As always the teachers are there to help you so its really important to get involved and make yourself known.

The weather. When you wake up and it is cold and cloudy it depresses you.
