The University of Montana Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about The University of Montana? Why?

Lindsey

The only thing that comes to mind, is the fact that we put so much emphasis on our football team. I believe other students, including myself, wish that more money would be put towards other departments besides the athletic one. We have a great team, but that's not everything at the University of Montana.

I believe the worst thing about my school is the availability of parking to the students. On many occasions I was forced to drive around the campus looking for an available parking spot and having no luck. I feel strongly about the fact that the University of Montana needs more parking. I believe that many of the students would agree with me on this subject and would like to see either more parking areas, or a new parking garage built on campus. The lack of parking I believe is the worst thing about my school.

I would say the worst thing about my school is the location. During the winter it gets so cold and icy you definitely have to be careful when walking to class. However, it is a minor problem because the school does an excellent job with trying to keep the sidewalks bare. Although, some improvement could be done with keeping them drier when the snow melts.

Amy

The school does not have enough money to do some of the environmentally friendly restructuring that they wish to do.

Sarah

The worst thing about the University of Montana would have to be all the small charges they make to your account. Even though they are small, they add up quickly. I am sure every other college is the same, but it is frustrating to have to pay for things that I do not use. For example, I never use the public transportation system and the college requires me to buy a pass. My school is very eco friendly and I understand their thought process, but it would be nice to decide which things I would like to pay.

Stephanie

The thing I consider the worst thing about my school is affordable and available off-campus housing options. Because the cost of living is high, and wages are relatively low, finding a decent affordable place to live is extremely frustrating and difficult for a married unemployed student such as myself.

Taylor

I believe that the school is undermaned in terms of on campus security at night and this is the worst part. The lighting along the walkways is dull, leaving many shadows for people to hide. Also, it is a rather large campus with building spaced far apart. There is only one security guard that patrols at night on bicycle. I would like to see brighter lights and a larger amount of active security patrolling during night time hours.

Melissa

There is a lot of diversity, however, sometimes the most diverse people are the least educated yet have the loudest voice on campus. That gets fairly bothersome. Also, parking sucks.

Shanalee

Well since my major is Pre-Med, I wish my school had a more developed program for students in my major. However, it is continuing to improve every year.

Roisin

I dislike that it feels isolated at times.
