Martyna . . . spokojnie dobrze?
Aż takiej opinii anty jeszcze nie widziałem. Przeglądam sobie angielska stronkę z komentarzami o uniwerkach i tam najgorszy komentarz nawet nie jest taki jak Twój.
Nie wiem jaki kierunek kończyłaś, że masz teraz problem ze znalezieniem pracy. Ja będą w Wolverhampton znalazłem prace w branży będąc tylko LO. Toteż przykro mi że tak toczą się teraz Twoje losy.
A tutaj jeden z komentarzy myślę najbardziej obiektywnych;
Subject: The True Picture;
I have found reading the comments here very enlightening. It appears as though the largely positive comments outweigh the negative, but sadly it will be the negative comments that prospective students will focus on and remember.
My experience is that the University is investing heavily in its buildings and infrastructure, and offers a first class environment in which to work. The staff are friendly, supportive and do seem to have the interests of the students at the center of what they do. It may not rank highly in league tables (because it does not concentrate on winning research grants, but instead focuses on being a very good teaching university), but I would recommend it to anyone who wants to really learn about their chosen subject.
This brings me on to perhaps why there are the negative comments. The students who seem to form a negative view of their chosen university are characterised by not really being interested in the subject they have chosen, think university is just an extension of College (which it is not - it needs a new approach), fail to understand that they are not there to be taught but are there to learn (and can not see the difference) and do not want to make a contribution back to university life.
Of course, life at university is not just about studying. It is important to keep a balance between study, social life and earning part-time (a financial reality). All too often I see students around me who have lost that sense of balance. They seem to work full-time, come to university to socialise, and put little effort in to their course. They get poor results, fail modules and then blame the university for thir own shortcomings.
I agree with the comment of an earlier contributor. They are probably at Wolverhampton because it was the nearest (and they could not be bothered to go elsewhere to study) or they are weak students (you only have to look a the standard of literacy used in their comments to see that they struggle to put a sentence or two together).
I was also worried that one student felt that Wolverhampton was backward in addressing issues of race. My own race is irrelevant here, but I have not found that. I have worked with students from a variety of background on group work. I have never felt that I have been treated in any particular way because of my background. I have always felt welcomed and treated as an individual on my merits, and the level of my contributions. The staff reflect the ethnic mix of the region, and from a racial point of view I have found no problems.
I would suggest to any potential student that they come to one of the Open Days, see the facilities, meet staff and make your own mind up. That's what I did - and I have not regretted it.
I now await the attacks from the students who took offence at what I have said !
