Colorado State University-Fort Collins Top Questions

our school is perfect. people dont give us enough credit. i would encourage our school to be more green, we should be at the forefront of the sustainable game in all aspects of our school.

I think the best part about CSU is the location. In probably the best town in USA for its location and atmosphere. Its awesome too because there are so many outdoor activites around the area. I think CSU is just about the right size, but i do believe we could have some more school spirit. Since, our sports are not the best people are'nt that crazy about going to see the teams, which kinda take away from the school pride.

The best thing about CSU to me is the atmosphere. I love just walking around campus. Its a relaxing feel. I also like how attentive the advisors are, especially the advisors who help the undeclared majors. They also have a great online system that makes registration for classes easy. I think the campus size is just right. There is a lot of space and I like that. Most of the free time I have I spend in the student center but I am looking forward to hanging out in the new computer building that they are almost done building. It is more of a college town. The most recent contriversary I can remeber is the article written in the schools newspaper that negatively protrays Bush, well atleast the headline did. I think there is a lot of school pride, even if the sports teams arent so good. I will always remember the times with my friends really. I mean class is class. And Im not really involved with clubs. I will also remember living in my own apartment for the first time and how crazy that was. Also how much tests SUCK and how you need to learn HOW TO STUDY!! I think I just wish that the campus was prettier. The buildings are kind of ugly and dont really match.

I think the best thing about CSU is the community around it. Everyone is very nice and supportive of eachother and very friendly. I think the school is the right size i just wish that CSU would push to become more nationally recognized. I feel that there is a fair amount of school pride but thats definatly an area where we could improve in.

The best thing about CSU is the people. They are all exceptionally friendly and most would give you the shirt off their backs if you asked for it. The school itself is the perfect size. It's big enough so everyone doesn't know your business, but small enough so that you'll see someone you know just about any time you're on campus. It isn't intimidating, and if you put out the effort it's easy to climb to the top of the campus hierarchy. People in this state are really proud of CSU. If I tell someone from Oklahoma that I go to CSU, I usually get some sort of big "Boomer Sooner!" reaction. When I'm hanging out on campus I spend most of my time in "The Gay" (The Gaylord College of Journalism and Mass Communications). It's a brand new building with state of the art equipment and relaxing study areas, so journalism students never want to leave. They are actually expanding the building in the next few years, and it's going to have an outdoor courtyard, a third-floor terrace, a coffee shop and all sorts of swanky additions. CSU's town, Norman, is definitely a college town. There's always something fun going on, and the entire town (really, the entire state) gets into our sports scene. Local Normanites have a really healthy relationship with the university. And our President, Papa B. (David Boren), is a great guy. He's done so much for CSU during his tenure and he's incredibly friendly. He has a big Santa belly and the jolliest face, it's hard not to love him. Really, there's a lot of school spirit here. You'll always see kids wearing Sooner paraphernalia, and when our football team goes to bowl games all the statues on campus get decorated accordingly. (Before the Orange Bowl, the statues donned orange "pearl" necklaces, and before the Sugar Bowl any statue carrying a basket got a sack of sugar placed inside it.) If I had to point out some student complaints, they'd mostly be around the drainage issues on campus. No matter the amount of precipitation, our campus always floods, and you basically have to canoe yourself to class. And forget walking through the grass in the North or South Ovals right after its rained, they basically all transform into marshlands.

Fort Collins is very much based around CSU but it offers so many activities outside of the college that makes it a great place to be living, especially in the college years.

I think the school is the right size. I spend time in the college town. I like it here

CSU has a great campus and the classes are well formatted. The people are nice.

The best thing about CSU is the town that it is in. Fort Collins is an awesome town and they appreciate the student population. Another great thing is that CSU is awesome for is all of the outdoor recreation.
