LSU is alot more then just sports we have very strong academics too. One of the great parts of LSU is the class sizes. Most of my classes are about 25-30 students. This lets the professors really get to know you and help you if your struggling. Not all of the classes are like this unfortunately. I usually have about one class a semester with 300-400 students. In these classes you have to take the time to go and talk to the professor so they know who you are. At LSU I spend about 4-5 hours a day studying and reviewing class notes. Some students study more and some study less it really depends on how quickly you can learn things. It also depends on the school that you are trying to get into. I'm in the Arts and Sciences college as a communication studies major. The requirements are to maintain a 2.0 gpa and to complete 128 hours. This is a much easy and let demanding major then the business college. They have to have a 3.0 and do interviews to be admitted into the program. My favorite class I have taken at LSU is my Theater classes. They have student participation and I learn a lot from them. I'm also a student that enjoys talking infront of people so these are my kind of classes. The most unique class I have taken was MC 2010 with Mrs. Taylor. She gave us a project to spend the semester trying to find out about her without talking to her. I went to her boss, husband, and even some friends to find out personal information. Then I went downtown and looked up her records on file at city hall. After we turned in the papers she took the whole class out for coffee. We spent a few hours asking her to fill us in more about her life. This was a very interesting class that I will never forget.

If the class is slightly specialized, then it will be small enough for personalization. If it is just a general 1000 class, it will probably be too large to be noticed in. My favorite classes are English writing workshops. Peer evaluation is a very entertaining way to be taught. Most people think foreign language is LSU's toughest area. Ive tried Spanish and Latin, I agree. Students are slightly competitive, no ones rude or obnoxious about it though. LSU seriously lack's deans, or at least assistant deans. Unless they are about to graduate, students have to wait weeks or even months for a conference. By this time, students have to drop the class in question or have had to make the decision on their own.

Yea, my professors all know me by name. My favorite class this semester is my marketing class. It is an interesting look at how to improve my communication skills and the professor is quite interesting. I really don't have a least favorite class because even the one I like the least is still sort of interesting. Students study usually around 3 to 5 hours. Class participation is very common. You always have those few students that will speak up in class. As for intellectual conversations, there are many conversations that go outside the athletics realm being held. Graphic Design is quite interesting but really should be in the school of design and be allowed access to the resources that the design students have. I usually try to speak with my professors a little outside of class just to get their insight on life and class. LSU's academic requirements should be a little more rounded with different aspects of society. LSU is more geared towards getting a job.
