18. What didn't we ask? Please make any additional comments.
q did we require special services (I have a physical disability)? How satisfied were with police/escort/bookstore/food/having special needs
met? I want to say that the parking services people have been just fantastic in helping me out with any car prob
q forgot to ask if class schedule conflicted with work schedule
q Questions about teachers and advisers (i.e.. which did a good job and which did not.)
q Registration problems
q Sometimes felt like I had to teach myself, rather than being taught by professor. Particularly in the language courses. Very disappointing
and disturbing the lack of additional help received by foreign language instructors.
