What's unique about your campus?

I love how California State University, Long Beach is so very ethnically diverse. You look around while walking to class and already see several different ethnic backgrounds and when just waiting in line or are in class here these different accents from places all over the world. It is truly a blessing to have so much oppurtunity to meet so many culturally different people and learn about their way of life.

The best thing about my school are the resources they provide. This school has plenty of resource centers that help students suceed during their time attending CSULB. This school provides the students with many resourece centers such as the undergraduate advising center, scholarship center, career development center, tutoring centers, and so much more. Graduating on time has been hard on many undergraduate students but with the resources CSULB provides, it helps us graduate on time. Also, these resource centers provide are free for students which is always a great thing!

The best thing about Long Beach State is the "Beach Pride." Students all around campus can be seen sporting their Beach gear and showing their pride at sporting event and around campus. There is a sense of closeness and community when it comes to Long Beach State. It is a place that is, " for the students, by the students" and this can be seen through camus programming. The Beach is one of the most spirited campuses in the CSU system and the enthusiasm for The Beach continues to grow. As past President Maxson says, "Go Beach!"

Despite all the walking around one has to do, I love that the campus is huge and that every departement on campus is huge, especially the engineering buildings. I also love how most people here are mature , diverse, and hard-working. The most of my classes aren't very big either and that makes it easier for students to get aid from the teacher. The people of the school are very friendly and very helpful in deciding one's career and educational path.

Martha

The best thing about my school, is the different opportunities and choices one has with schedule, classes, etc. Also the fact that we are lucky to have many transportation services available that pass right through are school without having to have any difficulties with which bus passes here, or which doesnt. Buses tend to pass every 5-10 minutes, the wait time is amazing which makes it a better place and environment to attend school with this great opportunity.

What i believe is the best feature from Cal State Long Beach is all the progams it offers to aid its students with anything they might need help on. Programs such as BLC (Beach Learning Community), and all of the extracurricular activities that are offerred.

What I find to be the best thing about California State University Long Beach is the art program and faculty. I really feel like I'm getting my money's worth because the art department has done an amazing job of creating classes that teach you a variety of skills.

Richard

I love the atmosphere of my school and the attitude the students and teachers bring to the school. This atmosphere is unreal in which so many people seem to love Long Beach as much as I do. I feel very optimistic in classes and life as well as satisfied with how well involved in school. Many unique personalities give our school a great vibe. The students are really friendly, but most importantly are willing to go out of their way to help others. Strangers are willing to talk to each other and friends are made like that.

I feel that the faculty and Staff make all the difference at California State University, Long Beach. All of the adminstration is positive and always willing to help out however they can help out. The people that work at this university truly enjoy being where they are. I feel that the positive energy is contageous and it highly affects the students that attend the university.

California State University Long Beach is extremely diverse; the institution accommodates the large diversity, in such a way that minorities like myself are reassured that we will find success. I was amazed to find that as a female going into the field of engineering, not only was I accepted here, I was welcomed. Here I am equal. As I started to join engineering associations-like the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers- I was asked to take on leadership positions. The fact that many engineering groups here on campus are headed by successful women is very encouraging as a minority.

Tiffany

I love the teachers because they are so easy going and understanding. Also the school is a beautiful outdoor school with a great Student Union complete with a pool, billiards tables, tvs, and even a pingpong table.

Daisy

I would say the best thing about Cal State Long Beach would be the diversity. It seems as if everywhere I look, I see various ethnicities around me. I came from a High school that was not very diverse, and by attending CSULB, I have opened my perspective of how I view one another and expanded my social life. The diversity at Cal State long beach allows many student including myself , feel accepted, and not as an outcast.

Dianna

I got my undergrad degree here and I'm getting my master's in the nursing program. The best thing I've found is how my undergrad program prepared me for the more challenging master's program. The theater program was more laid back but I had to really learn how to organize and prepare for classes and working at the theater itself. Now that I'm in the master's program I'm reflecting on all the things I took away from the theater program and how they benefited me a great deal.

La

What I consider the best thing about my school is that we have many reasources at our advantage. My school provides us with as much help as needed all we have to do is ask and even if we don't ask and they see that we do need it they will give it to us anyway and make it manditory. another thing I consider to be great is that the school is very diverse and they have multiple ways to have us interact with people who are different from us whether in race/ethnicity or culture/religion.

Ruth

The lasting friendships I made with students and professors. I still talk to my Academic advisor and professors 2 years later about my graduate studies. It is amazing to me that they are still helping me out with my studies when I am not even attending school in the same state!

Amanda

The best thing about Cal State Long Beach is everything. The campus is beautiful, the professors are interested in helping you learn the material you need to succeed. The students are accepting, studious, and know how to have fun. The entire Long Beach experience is great!

Sarah

The best thing about California State University-Long Beach is that it is only one of two Universities that I know of that have a BA for Health Sciences with Radiation Therapy option. Almost everyone knows someone they love who has been affected by cancer. It is an ongoing struggle for those who battle cancer and for their families and California State University-Long Beach is able to give me the education I need in order to help these patients who need radiation therapy to help cure their cancer.
