University of Northern Iowa Top Questions

that is is rather small. the campus is very beutiful and compact, but the city it is in is very small, wich makes it rather quiet and safe but some times boring.

The worst thing about the University of Northern Iowa is the winters because not only in Iowa, but up in Cedar falls it becomes extremley! Cold this year we had a new record of -32 degrees it was freezing!

Since it is a more conservative campus, being diverse can be a challenge. Many students are from small, rural communities and honestly don't know life outside of their hometown so it's very interesting.

It's a suitcase college; a lot of student go home every weekend.

Certain majors require you get your masters but then they don't offer an advanced program of that major.

I believe the worst thing about the University of Northern Iowa is the attitude of half of the professors. I have run across a lot of professors who sit on their high throne and are not willing to help or be understanding about anything. Many when approached for help treat students rudely and expect them to figure it out on their own. Along with being rude, some professors are just plain lazy. All professors are not this way, but when a student gets stuck with one that is it makes it extremely hard to learn or even want to learn.

I feel that some of the classes are too large and do not give the students a fair amount of time for one on one learning.

People here tend to be really conservative. I just don't like how some students are really closed minded, many aren't, but there are enough here who are that you encounter them often enough.

The lack of parking for students who don't live on campus because the lots are always full, and when you find a spot it is a pretty long walk.

It is very cold in the winter time.
