Eric

The most frustrating thing about attending the University of Northern Iowa is that I am not going to be able to spend more time here. I have loved every aspect of my time here. I feel like this has been the single best experience and decision of my life. The people I have met here will be a part of my life for the foreseeable future.

The most frustrating thing about UNI is it's lack of diversity. However, I know they are taking many steps to improve this aspect. For example, my roommate is from Vietnam and her school was personally visited by a recruiter from UNI to talk about the university and entice them to attend here. The university is taking good strides to increase diversity here so while the lack of diversity is frustrating, it is also being worked upon.

The most frustrating thing about my school is the weather. I love UNI, I love the school and I love the professors, I just hate waking up in the morning and having to walk through two feet of snow in order to get to class.

Rachel

One of the more difficult things about the University of Northern Iowa is the challenge to maintain good grades and have a fulfilling social life while getting a sufficient amount of daily sleep. The class load is generally challenging and time consuming but overall, rewarding, and at times, it requires sacrifice in either sleep or social life. It is often frustrating to watch others balancing all three aspects with ease, but it helps to know that each of us is unique and has different strengths and weaknesses and in the end, it will all pay off.

the cold weather, but other than that I love UNI!

Caitlin

The most frustrating thing about my school for me is I live 5 hours away from home and that really was an adjustment this year. Plus I should have researched a little more about the school organizations even though there is alot of them to choose from they dont have alot that interests me. Even though adacemicly I recommend this school I just feel its important to not only be a student but to get involved and really get the full expierence and thats why I am transfering next year and I need all the support I can get.
