If you dont like Ohio University, its because you haven't come here. The campus is beautiful. We have several top notch fields, our sports teams are great, and the atmosphere is just amazing. If i could have gone to any school and do it all over again, NO WAY would I call anywhere but Athens home.
Education Quality: A+, Useful Schoolwork: B

I love most things about OU, but there is one thing everyone considering this school should be aware of. At the moment, OU is the third most expensive public university in Ohio. That would be fine if that money was being spent wisely, but the perception among students, including myself, is that there is much waste. Before enrolling, be sure to research the OU budget to see where your hard earned dollars will go. If I had to do it all over, I would probably still go here, because I love my department. I am not impressed, however, with the University's tuition hikes, administrative pay raises, and wasted general fee funds while buildings are in dire need to upgrades and maintenance and students are racking up mountains of debt.

Honestly Im not a big fan of OU, I can't speak about the other departments but the Biology department is soul sucking. These past years of my life have been miserable, not because Im a bad student (infact im starting medical school soon). In my experience the professors are not very helpful, yeah you can meet them in their office once in a while but you get the hint that your not really welcome. Busy work is a plenty at OU, you learn to just accept it, i remember one instant where my O.Chem instructor (Mcmills) said "its MY job to make your lives hell at OU". Im finishing up my last few classes at OU and i cant say how happy ill be once this nightmare is over. Oh and FYI while i was at OU there were 17 different rapes at the campus, dont let the police forces present fool you.
