Colorado State University-Fort Collins Top Questions

If I could change one thing at CSU it would be the grading system. I feel that all classes campus wide should all be graded the same. 70-80 should be a C 80-90 should be a B and 90-100 should be an A. Simply put, I feel that the grading system would be flawed if it continues this way. Equality is important and it should be addressed. Our school spirit is not good and I feel like recruiting top athletes should be a top priority. It''s proven that a school with good athletics atracts a larger amount of people.

I love CSU because I love the campus. The campus is so spread out and beautiful. I also love the town, very calm and relaxed. I love my dorm as well because we are a community and we do things together as a group

I like how environmentally friendly it is. Schools can pruduce so much waste and we do a great job reducing the waste we create.

everything i love

CSU is a very open campus. People are inclined to say hello or to take care when engadging in conversation, more so than the school I transfered in from. The people and the activities available in town are a big attraction. CSU's administration and teachers are comparable to any other school. There are those who care and want to teach, and then there are those who just give information and say "you're on your own". They don't teach or help the students, but for the most part, the administration and the teachers are very caring.

The best thing about CSU is that it is in Fort Collins, which is such an amazing town. The atmosphere is small town, but with big town ideas(I think because it is so close to Denver). I think the size of the school is just right, although some people that come from out of state think it is huge, but its really just spread out. The biggest controversy on campus is probably the parking situation. There is never anywhere to park...EVER! And then it is so easy to get a ticket, that part really sucks. As far as school pride, I don't see an exreme amount, but then again, we aren't really that great at any of our sports. I really can't say that I have been at CSU long enough to have a special moment related directly to the school. The very worst part of CSU and Fort Collins in general is the police. There is something like 1cop for every eight people, but I guess thats what makes it such a desierable city. Its super safe, or rather "vanilla valley".

The best thing about CSU is that unlike most schools it has a lot of grassy areas and plants and trees. I think that CSU is just right. On campus i spend most of my time sitting outside when the weather is nice or in the student center or library.

I think CSU is a great school. I've always wanted to go here, so it's like a dream come true. It is the perfect sized school, not too big and not too small. I'd say Fort Collins is a college town, there's like 70 liquor stores and hundreds of restaurants. Unfortunately, CSU athletics are pretty poor, but hopefully they can recover in the next couple of seasons.

It is a great campus and the students are very friendly. There are not a lot of rich kids which is cool because nobody is arrogant. The staff is great and there are lots of extracirricular activities.

I think that CSU is a perfect size school, it is large enough to be a good University but not too large where it is overwhelming. People love the town of Fort Collins and love the school.

CSU is a good sized university, there is a lot of diversity and opportunity to get involved. Because it is a large school there are many opportunities for cultural experiences and different social clubs to be involved in. People react well when I say that I am going to CSU. I love the town and think that there is a good interaction between the town and the school. There is good community support.

The best thing about CSU is its location, and the view of the mountains from campus. I'd change the rule that you cant register for some classes unless registered under that major. I think school is just the right size, with the exception of some of the 400 plus kid classes. there isn't enough teacher interaction in those classes. On campus I spend most of time time around the LSC. Deffinitely a college town. As far as I can tell, the administration is good, there's some that are great and some that are kind of not in the loop, but not everyone can be. The latest controversey on campus, is what student tuition is being spent on. There is a lot of school pride. As far as I can tell, there's not really anything unusual about CSU.

I personally like CSU and would say the best thing about the campus is how spread out the campus is. It makes you feel not so cramped. There is a little elbow room. Also the size is good. The classes are typically small enough to get time with the teacher and yet large enough that you don't feel you are always in the front row. (Unless you want to.) Also, Fort Collins is a great place to go to college, with fishing and biking nearby and a great night life in downtown.

CSU is amazing, the best thing is the people. Then comes the college town lifestyle where on sunny days everyone is outside running or playing a sport. One experience i will always remember is just being with everyone i have met and exploring Fort Collins within my four years at CSU.

the absolute best thing about csu is the construction management program.

School spirit

CSU is a great school. It's large, but I feel very included

The best thing about CSU is the campus and the people on campus. i think everyone is very friendly and the campus is beautiful especially during the fall when all of the leaves change.

The best thing about CSU is the school of business and the campus. There are really great clubs here. The football team. the school is fine the way it is. When I tell people where I go to college they nod their heads and say, "cool." I spend most of my time on campus. Fort Collins is a great college town. There are plenty of activities to do through the school plus many others in the surronding area. I just transfered here so I dont know that much about the administration. I dont know what the biggest controversy is on campus. Oh yeah there is heaps of school pride, every where I go people are wearing their school colors. I'll remember living on campus. I dont know what the most frequent student complaints.

I think that CSU is just the right size. There are enough people to create a good diverse group with lots of opprotunities to meet people but there it's small enough to have personal relationships with campus faculty and other students. The most recent controversy dealt with the Free Speech in the Collegian when the student wrote "F Bush". Although I understand why it was controversial and I personally think we shouldnt bash our president, I think that the controversy was mild compared to other campuses (such as CU!) The most frequent student complaints are about parking. The parking is my biggest complaint. We have very few parking places and its always been a problem.
