The deep Southern roots embeded in our culture. The racism and misogyny.

The worst thing about this school is that the Greek system dominates the school. The fraternities and sororities are very exclusive and are often judgemental. However, There are good people in the Greek system. It all depends on where you fit in.

The worst thing is probably the tuition cost.

The worst thing about my school is UA Parking. They love ticketing students for being in the wrong parking lots even when they are not full, and you will occasionally see a boot on some students' vehicles. There is limited parking for students that stay in some dorms such as Lakeside East/West which requires them to park more than a short walk away from their dorms.

The worst thing about The University of Alabama is the parking fees. It costs me $275 to park for one year. I have to buy a new $275 permit every year. I wanted a parking spot closer to my classes but that permit was $515. I think my school makes too much money on parking permits and parking tickets.

I consider the worst thing about my school is the lack of unity. While we all unite together for a great game day, we separate into cliques and circles that aggressively excludes others. With the large amount of students on our campus, we should easily be able to integrate ourselves with the vast amout of cultures, talents, and passions we have present within our student body. Instead, we separate based on social class, popularity, ethnic background, and tradition, creating a weak community.

The scholarship selection does not seem all that for especially for those that make good grades and are trying to pay for school.
Sybil
I can't think of a worst thing about the school because I attend online. I will say that when I did attend on campus years ago there was a huge racial divide between the African American and white students. I am unsure if this divide still exists but this was the only thing I did not like about the college back when I attended.

It is very hard to get scholarships. It is almost like they only want a certain few people to be able to get scholarships. It was very hard for me, an out-of-state student coming from Florida and leaving a scholarship that would have paid for m school in full because of my academics and coming to a school where background and family Alumni status are the main ways you can obtain one. If financial aide would hav been a better help to me and my parents, I would be continuing my education here, but i'm in debt.

I think the worst thing about my school is that there still is a lot of racism. I grew up in Florida and the southern setting is much less diverse than where I am from and people are more closed minded. I wouldn't say it is the majority of the school but a good portion are this way.
