差评项：
1.There are not enough dining places to choose from on campus and usually not many good food options or variety. And two words: "Trayless Tuesday."
2.No football team!
3.Not enough student involvement/interest in activities
4.Health services/wellness center is not open enough. You're out of luck if you get sick late at night or on a weekend.
5.Pretty much no cell phone reception anywhere
6.The "housing crisis" where there are not enough dorm rooms available for how many new students are being admitted
7.The IT department really is not that helpful if you have any problems with your computer or even if the school network is having problems.
8.Parking can be tight.
9.The school has such a large commuter population, and even a lot of students who live on campus live relatively close, so the campus is too quiet on weekends.
10.The shuttle service, particularly if you're using it after 4 on weekdays, has difficulty keeping on schedule.
