University of Colorado Boulder Top Questions

The most frustrating thing about my school is that it is ultra liberal and not very socially tolerant of those with difference views. I have experienced much grade bias as a political science student for the political views I affirm. I have been called a fascist and even an associate professor said, "I want nothing to do with your racist, sexist, and homophobic party." The University of Colorado at Boulder claims to be tolerant, but only if you agree with the professors and students.

It's hard for me to be as successful as I am used to being in my school work do to the overwhelming compeditiveness of other much more fortunite students. In order to attend this University, I must work much harder than others who might not need to hold a job and therefore they can focus much more intensly on class work.

I am often frustrated with the student body in general at my university. There is an extreme lack of diversity and even among the large populus, most people choose to look, act, dress and think unilaterally. I find many people are quite ignorant to the world and our country in general and choose to disrespect those who are different from themselves.

The binge drinking and drugs that go on

i found it hard to fit in as someone who doesn't like to party and drink.

The most frustrating thing about my school is that the amount of students who attend is so great that the academic advising becomes a hassle, and is often times left up to the student to figure out without guidance. I personally figured out all of my credits and courses needed throughout my college career, and struggled in these last couple of months to try and meet with my advisors for both my major and minor to get my graduation paper work signed. Overall, academic advising at this school is neither helpful nor available.

how expensive it is for out-of-state students.
