The University of Montana Top Questions

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

Dean

This school seems to be overtly liberal in many ways and a conservative such as myself sometimes needs to hold one's tongue. The liberals speak of diversity and freedom of speach, thought etc., but only if it matches thier narrow view of political correctness.

Sarah

That some teachers are "it's my way or no way" in their philosophy

Dora

The tutoring program was reassigned and reworked and now help way fewer students with way fewer courses.

Eric

The Financial aid help is not good. Even if students have signed up for work study, they are often assigned to loans and have to fight to get work study even if they had it previously.

Kate

There arent enough scholarships for the average student.

Barbara

There really is no "worse thing" about the school I attend. It is very helpful, energetic, and fun to be at. It is laid back but also offers many opportunities to better yourself. I enjoy going to this school because I feel welcome and know that there is always someone there to help me with any problems that I may encounter. This school provides many services so that anyone attending can fit in.

Rianna

Coming from a small town, the apathy of a city is a bit harsh in my opinion. When discouraged, it can be difficult to find someone on campus with a view of the bigger picture to help pull me out of a slump.

Derek

The worst thing about the school is the amount of programs and extra-curricular activities that I would like to become involved in. I constantly find myself volunteering for various projects and attending different events that it can be somewhat overwhelming. Although I try not to let my activities interfere with my schoolwork, sometimes this does occur.

Jamey

Because it is located in the low-populated state of Montana, there is a lack of cultural and ethnic diversity. About 90{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} or more of students are Caucasian. This does limit the exposure to enriching experiences, but the university does everyting to compensate for this void. Cultural seminars are held bi-annually, speakers are brought in to discuss race and diversity issues, and there is a thriving foreign exchange student body.

Brandon

The worst thing about the school is probably the lack of parking. The University is nestled against a mountain which limits is ability to expand. Off campus housing borders the other edge and the academic building eat up pretty much all of the room on a campus of just more than 200 acres including the athletic facilities. That being said parking can usually be found, you just have to be willing to take the maximum 10 minute walk across campus.
