Yale University Top Questions

What's the most frustrating thing about Yale University?

People can be very self-centered and over-ambitious. Also, the grayness in the winter.

The most frustrating aspect of my freshman year at Yale was the limited dining hall hours on the weekends.

The school atmosphere is vibrant and stimulating, yes; but it can also cross the line into frenetic and overwhelming. Since everyone's involved in so many activities on top of a full course load, sleep has a tendency to go by the wayside. And you get the sense that you're not delving deep enough into any one thing to really appreciate its full value. Yale students need to learn how to slow down, create time for reflection, and invest in learning experiences outside the classroom, club, or athletic field--real life experiences.
