While there are just a limited number of situation analysis studies, there is almost no situation analysis study referring to the physical conditions of an ELT Department. With this in mind, in this paper, the physical state of an ELT department in one of the oldest and rooted universities of Turkey was tried to be analyzed. The picture drawn by an interview with 15 faculty members including professors, associate professors, assistant professors, lecturers and research assistants has illustrated that if basic physical needs in education are not met; language learning quality decreases as a result. The state, institutional administrations and policy makers should firstly supply the education field with the most required physical settings in order for an effective education atmosphere. The results obtained from this descriptive study may prove to be of some help for educational institutions, administrators and policy makers as well as the researchers studying in the related field.
