There is very little diversity in the school. For the most part the students are upper class, liberal caucasians from the Colorado area. This is a problem because a lack of diversity keeps me from interacting with people with other ideas and of other nationalities. I feel confined by the people around me, and having differing ideas and being from a different background then most of them, I feel some what out of place.

Boulder has a windy season in winter and spring, and the window of my dorm room would rattle constantly. You learn to live with this, and in a way it's a point of pride to be a Boulderite and live with the wind (it gets so severe that I once saw someone playing soccer by himself - he'd kick the ball as hard as he could into the wind, and it would come right back to him). On mornings when you need to get to class, though, pride can go hang itself - you just want the wind to stop.

I think that it is very large, espeically in lower division courses where the lectures tend to be 300 students. I think that if the classes were smaller in lower division, students would perform better and their overall gpa's would be a reflection of this.

This is hard to answer as I absolutely love UCB, but one bad thing I can say about it is its infamy as a party school. (But, a majority of the students do not "party.")

My main disadvangtage right now is the location of the dorm rooms. Living off campus allows for difficulties arriving to class and doing the assigned projects. However, I have never missed one class nor a project. Just a small hurdle of the issue of transportation.

It was not a culturally diverse school, as an Iranian-American and Muslim female I often felt out of place as the majority of students socialized by attending house parties and bars

The worst thing about the University of Colorado at Boulder was the diversity. While the school strongly encouraged the students to broaden their social understanding, the lack of culture made that difficult.

The campus is not very diverse. There could be a more diverse student body.

The greek life can become very overwhelming for non-greek members. It doesn't completely rule the school but a lot of emphasis is placed on it, and if you are non-greek you tend to find other non-greek friends.

The worst thing about CU Boulder is the discontinuation of repeating classes. Recently CU decided that every class that a student takes will go on their transcript. I think they are doing this to try to motivate the students, but I think it will actually do the opposite.
