What do you consider the worst thing about University of Rhode Island? Why?

Jacqueline

I can not find anything negative about this school. I honestly love URI, and I firmly believe that attending this university was the best decision i made.

Matthew

The worst thing about URI is the music building's condition. It looks like a prison.

Dean

I believe raising the in-state tuition is going to create bad situations for students.

Matthew

The fact that the current administration places far more importance on the school's image than on the actual happiness of the student body.

David

The lack of campus life....students who have school spirit

Lauren

How far each class is from each other & the time in between takes too long to walk to class.

Matthew

Groups set early on, races don't mix much, there isn't much opportunity for creating new social networks after freshman year Learning Communities. Academic advising doesn't exist, but tutoring does. Scholarships can be revoked very easily, and students are not given much of an appeal process to retain them. There are few teachers at the higher level classes, and therefore a small selection of topics available. Creating internships is a rigid process with little freedom as is the independent study option. Creating a major, though technically offered is not an easily accessible option.

Alice

Quality of campus and the lack of school pride.
