I consider the best part of Chico State to be the small classes offered in the Communcation Design department which allows more one on one from professors. I also believe that the great oppurtunites to get involved on campus are encouraging to students.

I woud say community involvement is the best thing about our school because it gives students a chance to get out there and help people who really need it and you get to go new places and it really does make you feel really good about what you are doing.

The best thing about my school is the having the benefit of a college town and getting to run into many classmates on and off campus. it gives you the oppurtunity to do activites together after classes. For example attending a spin class together to stay fit or eating in downtown chico, which is literally next to the campus.

The classes are small; for the students who want to get involved, meet people, and get to know their professors, this is the place to go. Most people are friendly, outgoing, and kind.

I love how many different activites there are for people to join in. There is always something for everyone, no matter what you enjoy or what you're like.

The best thing about California State University, Chico is the newly built gym. The gym is amazing! There is so much space and equipment. There is an indoor track, basketball courts, rock climbing course, swimming pool and hot tub, weight room, cardio room, and there are also exercise programs such as yoga, pilates, and spinning. The locker rooms are large with lots of privacy. There are always lots of fun activities occuring at the gym, such as movie night out at the pool with popcorn and drinks provided. The gym is free to all current students!

The incredible amount this community gives to each individual to learn and find oneself without judgement. People take pride in their work and promote their beliefs, and many dedicate their lives to how they can help the planet and help others. It is very welcoming and everyone has an equal chance to succeed and find their personal interests. This school helps one succeed academically and spiritually.

The faculty and staff was very helpful and always willing to help which made the whole experience very educational. I made a lot of new friends and learned a great deal of things about different aspects of life.

The best characteristic of my school, apart from its location, is the inspiring and helpful nature of the staff and my peers. This is important because what drives a a student at his or her very core is a sense of belonging and purpose.

Chico is the epitome of a college town; however, it is not due to the sudden freedom that accompanies such transitions into a life of independence. Instead, the best quality of Chico is the coheasive relationship between its community and its students. It is more than a temporary place from home. The Chico community fearlessly envelops its new family members, partnering with the university, together striving to support its 17,000 children and prepare them for success. In turn, Chico provides endless opportunities to give back to the community, activively participating in festivals, farmer's markets, internships, and volunteer work.

I believe that the best thing about my school is the community. People at CSU Chico are very friendly. It helps the transition from high school to college a lot easier. The majority of students are always willing to offer advice about what courses to take, when to take them, and who to take them with. It feels as if everyone at the school, faculty included, want the students to succeed.

I'd say the best thing about my school is the environment. All the teachers seem to really want to teach you the material. Even other students are helpful. It's a good learning environment.
Caitlin
Everyone on campus as well as around town is so friendly. The teachers and administrators strive to give each student to best opportunities to succeed. They are always available during office hours and are always realistic about what they expect from you, what they can do to help you, and what you can do to help yourself. Class sizes are always small and the learning environment is always productive and condusive to success in the course. On top of all that, there are so many clubs and programs to get involved with the strong sense of spirit and community.
Lisa
There is an incredible surrounding community. Chico is a warm, welcoming town.
Quinn
The best thing about my school are the avialable resources provided and the natural beuaty of the area.
Christopher
The overall friendly atmosphere. Professors are really helpful and are almost always availible to students. In addition here are in all nice people.
Nancy
The best thing about my school was that it was small and the faculty were very caring and supportive of students.
Maricela
The best thing would be the fact that we are such a friendly community. It literally feels like a family. Our town isnt that small nor that big, however we tend to always reach out and help. The students come together to do for our community. For example, in December two restaurants downtown caught on fire. So the student body started fundraising money for those people that lost thier jobs during the holiday season.
Max
the dedication and passion of the faculty, many of which take the extra time to help.
