| 206048 | 1 | I think tiffin needs t= o expand there food selection, i understand this is not educational, but it effect= s my acadamic performance and lifestyle, also to make stuff they need to get r= id of certain teacher cough cough mrs. Watts, and Asawii. These professors do not help in our aid to learning what we need but critique and criticize us personally. Without them i = feel people would stay and want to learn then hate our school, so get rid of them!!!!! | ||
| 206048 | 1<= /td> | It wou= ld be helpful if TU scheduled co-curricular activities on days OTHER than Wedne= sday morning, as that is extremely inconvenient for me, a commuter, to attend.= | ||
| 206048 | 1<= /td> | I wish= that the school had more class rooms so they could offer more classes in more subjects. Also there needs to be an easier and safer way to cross Miami t= han what there currently is. Before the school brings in more students for 20= 11, I would like to see an expansion in buildings, living and parking spaces.= It seems like the school is bringing in more people than it can tend to and = as a student I don't want to be left out or feel kicked to the curb, now that = you have me in the door and my money. I came to this school to get the small school feel and personal help that I wanted, that's what I bought into. | ||
| 206048 | 1<= /td> | Being = an African- American on a campus that is majority white is hard. I have had = to deal with many things that I thought I would never have to deal with. My education has been going well, but I feel that I have been hadicapped in = that there are no black professors on my campus. | ||
| 206048 | 1<= /td> | The in= stitution is overall pretty good. Bei= ng in such a small environment will allow students to better focus on their stu= dies and get the individual attention they need. | ||
| 206048 | 1<= /td> | Many s= taff members are set in their ways of teaching and are not open to students' n= eeds or ideas. Administrators ca= n be helpful at times but those students who are not living on campus, not in sports or in popular activities receive very little support compared to others. | ||
| 206048 | 1<= /td> | I firs= t came to Tiffin University because I wanted to play softball, but I now realize th= at even if I were to no longer play softball here I would stay here because = of the university's academic programs. The academic features and faculty on = this campus are amazing! | ||
| 206048 | 1<= /td> | Offer = more Accounting classes. I am ha= ving issues trying to get my Accounting 210 class in so that I may continue wi= th my other Accounting classes. | ||
| 206048 | 1<= /td> | Being = in college is an interesting experience. It has made me realize a lot about my work ethic and study habits. I hope to work hard and finish strong. | ||
| 206048 | 1<= /td> | Tiffin University is a great institution. However, it is set in a very small rur= al town and that is just not for me. | ||
| 206048 | 1<= /td> | The bi= ggest problem I have is the university requiring students to have a meal plan w= hile living on campus. I do not = think the cafeteria provides the healthy food that I could prepare for myself.<= span style=3D'mso-spacerun:yes'> It seems in their hope that the = food will taste good, they sacrifice health by adding butter, salt, cream, or something else unheathy to everything.&n= bsp; Although there are vegetables, they are either the same salad bar = as usual or the cooked ones are full of salt and butter. I would appreciate being able to= buy a much smaller meal plan or not having to buy one at all. | ||
| 206048 | 1<= /td> | Even t= hough Tiffin University was not my first choice for college it has turned out t= o be the better choice for me. I have found a community of people that I am comfortable and confident around. I feel that this university will help m= e go the places I want to go and help me figure out the best ways to obtain wh= at I desire for a carrer. | ||
| 206048 | 1<= /td> | As an = adult student, I find most of the time spent here wasted. My math classes are v= ery informative and well worth the time, however, my english classes and curr= ent teacher are a total waste of my time. I will probably clep out of them an= d go to a different institution with better advisors and better geared to the adult student. | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | The sc= hool caters to the students who live on campus. I have found that being a work= ing adult student who commutes has several challenges that the school is unwilling to notice. Continuing to hold classes when the county is under a level 3 snow emergency is one example. Also, when you double major an adv= isor should be assigned to help guide both tracks. | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | Facult= y was always willing to help, that is the most important thing Tiffin offers I think, and is something they should always keep. | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | Admini= stration does NOT have a good grasp on what Fast Track students require for their education! | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | I woul= d have liked to have more time to think about this question, because there are m= any things I would like to say that I can't think of off the top of my head. I have enjoyed my experience at Tiffin University, however being an adult student and a student that commutes a long distance have both been extrem= emly challenging. | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | I like= this school. Great opportunity to succeed, if it is that which one is seeking! | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | Profes= sors have been helpful. They care abo= ut a student's performance. | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | I am an international student from Canada, so this whole experience is abroad. | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | This i=
s a
terrible university with staff that tries their hardest, but suck
anyway. The English staff a=
re
generally good -- much better than the rest of the university, anyway. Overall, this is a close-minded hell hole. It has been the worst four years= of my life. Almost everything I've learned about myself or the world comes from hat= ing this university. I did not = learn about myself from helpful, thought-provoking professors. Instead, I learned about myself = from being in a deep, dark depression -- caused entirely by this university. Tiffin University is a terrible, terrible place. It is racist, anti-non-christian= s, anti-gay, and anti-everything. If you are not a conservative Christian in this shit box, you have to hate y= our life. I have had very few meaningful conversations with any students here. Yes -- retarded. Students here don't know how to analyze anything. Abstract thought does not exist = in this school. I hate this place, and I will never come back again. Not unless I become famous and am asked to speak here. Seriously, Tiffin University almost destroyed my life. I hate this place. |
||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | I beli= eve that it should be mandatory for professors to use the online portal for grading. I do not feel that= many professor put much effort into updating the students on their grades. I believe that their should be m= ore oppurtunities provided to earn college credit through work. I believe that classes should be offered during the same semester at night and during the day for accounti= ng students. | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | I have= enjoyed Tiffin University. With 47 days left until graudation, I have had a lot of reflective moments this year thinking about the choices I have made over t= he past four years. While there are things that I do not like about the university (which I consider privileged being that I am a student leader = with an inside track), I would not change my decision in coming here for anyth= ing in the world. There is ALWAYS room for improvement, but I have had an outstanding time here at T.U. | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | N/A | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | It wou= ldn't do any good!!! | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | This s= chool is the most bias university I could have possibly choose. There are lesbian teachers who g= ives her female students better grades. Also there are male teacher who give attractive female students gr= ades they do not earn. We have c= oaches who break every NCAA violation made.&nbs= p; Finally we have Deans who think they are above talking to students about the problems at this University. | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | Study = abroad was the best experience of my life. I would encourage any other student considering to go. | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | I enjo= y the classes I am taking at Tiffin University, but the staff is not particuarly helpful. The faculty is gre= at and I feel I am able to speak with any professor, but I have a difficult time going to anyone else for questions. I have recieved rude remarks and attitudes from multiple faculty s= taff members, and I am very disappointed in that. | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | Profes= sors need to ensure that they maintain a high expectation of academic standards from all students. Even those le= ss that may be motivated. Stud= ents will need high standards to succeed in the real work force. They need to learn this in colle= ge. | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | I thin= k tiffin needs to expand there food selection, i understand this is not educationa= l, but it effects my acadamic performance and lifestyle, also to make stuff = they need to get rid of certain teacher cough cough mrs. Watts, and Asawii. Th= ese professors do not help in our aid to learning what we need but critique a= nd criticize us personally. Wi= thout them i feel people would stay and want to learn then hate our school, so = get rid of them!!!!! | ||
| 206048 | 4<= /td> | Going = to a smaller private school like Tiffin was a very big advantage for me. It gave me a chance to get to kn= ow everyone; students, faculty and staff.&n= bsp; By doing so i was more comfortable in the environment and it was easier to learn. If i had a question i didnt feel embarassed to ask in front of the whole class and i knew that no matter what i needed my professors were always there to help= me in a timely and attentive manner. The faculty and staff guenuinly care about each individual being s= ure that everyone who comes out of Tiffin University will succeed in both academics and out in the real world. | ||
