University of Massachusetts-Amherst Top Questions

The only problem with that I have with UMass is that it is overcrowded and some of the buildings are a little worse for wear.

The overcrowdedness of the school becomes overwhelming, and unless you stick yourself out and look for what you need, you can become lost.

Many students can be very immature and it is very easy to get caught in negativity.

The on-campus residents party too much. The University Health Services has seen an astronomical rate of students this year due to complications in their drinking alcohol.

My current school, the Boston Conservatory, has a wonderful Master of Music Education degree program. The downside is that the program is geared toward students who do not have a Bachelor's Degree in music education. As someone who has already earned a Bachelor of Music Education degree, I find that I often have more experience than the other students in my graduate level courses. I believe that if there were an option to take courses at different levels based each student's music education experience, all students would get the greatest education for themselves.

The worst thing about my school is catching the bus on time.

The worst thing is the large lecture class sizes

I would like to see more opportunities for the classes to meet outside of school. It would be nice to have the nursing department sponser more volunteer activities, and get-togethers.

The minorities

too much greek life, its big, not enough diversity
