Problems I Faced in My Previous University

Students at the Lebanese University face many problems and difficulties that hinder their graduation. I am a Lebanese University graduate, and I really had hard times while I was studying in one of its branches. I"m going to give few examples; I know that a lot worse stuff happened in other faculties.

The Faculty of Letters and Human Sciences in Zahleh is fully marginalized. I don't really know where to start! When I was there, there was always no electricity due to carelessness and lack of responsibility. I also had friends with special needs and disabilities who used to face a big difficulty in going up stairs to reach the auditoriums.

We had no libraries, there was only one library but it was more like a joke of a library. There were also no computer labs or web-based research tools, I don't even remember that we were asked once to do a research! Our grades were all based on one exam in the whole year which brings students to be at disadvantage. Moreover, many administrators had political affiliations, and students who shared the same affiliations were “special”. However, those who were known to be sharing different affiliations, they were disadvantaged too. 

When we talk about the LU,the question repeats itself: why is there always oppression and prejudice against LU students? is it because they are poor? This shouldn't be happening since this university is the government university and it should reflect its image. 

Needless to say, LU will never be what we all want it to be, unless issues like those are addressed and treated. Unfortunately, so far no such intent is available.
