Best: The social aspect of university is the most satisfactory part of being a student. The various available clubs and connections between students on campus make the university journey worth it. The mass inclusion for eagerness to study resonates throughout the university. Worst: Queen's campus is usually located in the middle of the city, which presents its fair share of dangers. Sometimes, I feel students are not made aware of such hazards. By educating students more on these dangers, university life will feel safer for staff and students alike.

Best: I like the hours of the course, it allows a great work-life balance allowing me to develop not just as a student but as a person, and I am grateful that I can do that. Worst: Some of the lectures can be tedious. For example, some lecturers just read off the slides, and this defeats the purpose of going to lectures when the resources are made available. A better approach is to explain terms and make the lecture more interactive for those who attend the lectures to make it more interesting and engaging.

Best: I find it great where Swanston House is located. It is right in the City Centre and is only a short walk away from campus. This means I do not have to worry about travel or public transport and can get what I need done, plus a bit of exercise. Worst: Some of the staff on night shifts in Swanston House have left a bit to be desired. As helpful as they are, sometimes I feel the security is lax. For example, a crowd of boys got into Swanston House when I was in the common room and tried to infiltrate the common room however, the security guard on duty was not there. By increasing the training and quantity of overnight staff, there will be a greater sense of safety in the accommodation.

Everyone puts so much effort into making students feel safe, welcome, and successful.
