11/10/2024Like a lot of schools, it is a great school. I definitely think the world is in a different place than it was 10 years ago, but that’s no excuse. Some of us make decisions without thinking and it is what it is… to them. To an outsider who see’s it, it’s disgusting. There are great people at this university, but there are also a lot of people that aren’t so nice, and genuinely only think for themselves & what makes them feel good. All of the academic programs are amazing. Personally, it was the culture. Partying, drinking & some drug activity (not a lot). And if I wasn’t that, or did that, I’m no one. But what’s the point? Sure, college you have freedom and you join fraternity’s and sorority’s, it’s part of the college lifestyle. But let’s not forget we’re here to be the next leaders of this world. If you waste your four years prioritizing things that are detrimental for your health, you aren’t going to be ready at all no matter how fine you think you’ll be. There is always an equal opposite, your choices have a consequence. It CAN be a good consequence, lets not forget that. But if you choose to do bad, you might not see it YET, the consequences will come. That’s for everyone, and in every realm of life. Jobs, friends, family, relationships, sports, events. Every day we make a choice, and that choice can either make us 1% better to get to where we want to be, or 1% worse, negative to where we want to go. The only “feeling” I got that from was from nursing, and childhood education majors. Because they don’t have time for chaos, it’s a very hard career to get into, not to mention those careers are expensive. They have a ton of workload and all I hear is them say “I’m stressing”, or “I don’t know how I’m going to do this”, and I’m there to be a motivating factor, and I see they work harder and they talk differently about themselves. It’s a matter of having each others back, because the adjustment, academically, geographically, internally in the mind, it is really hard. I didn’t feel that at Bloomsburg. A couple of my nursing friends were there to just talk, be there for each other and motivate each other. But other than that I wasn’t able to connect with anyone simply because they didn’t want to. I want to be at a place where I feel safe, can get some sleep, am able to ask questions and receive an actual honest answer, where everyone is kind to one another because everyone is watching, even God is. By all means go here for the education, but don’t expect sunshine and rainbows, it’s a bit cruel and nobody actually cares, only very few.
I hope this helps anyone in the mix of finding their college home. Good luck, and God Bless.

05/25/2020Bloomsburg has a great group of professors that care about their students. We have great resources and great opportunities as well. Although, it is no secret that "college life" occurs casting a partying reputation for our school which casts a shadow on the overall reputation. It is a good school, and those who take their education seriously see that and appreciate it.
