Central Michigan University Top Questions

Just Right, Central is great, friendly however the only thing is sometimes MANY people mis-inform you about important information. I lost out on all of my financial aid and I'm now paying for an outrageous loan and interest rate.

I love the size of CMU. Its not too small and its not too big and there are plenty of things to do around campus. When I tell people that I go to CMU, they usually react by asking me if I party every day of the week. Everyone here is extremely nice and easy to talk to if you have a question.

The one thing that I will always remember about CMU is being part of Sigma Kappa. I have made great friends that I will have my entire life. Sigma Kappa has made me a better person and exposed me to a lot of different experiences.

The best thing about Central Michigan University is the environment. When walking on campus I always have a feeling of, "this is where I belong." The campus is just the right size and offers an immense variety of programs and activities. One thing that I would change is the professors use of BlackBoard. I believe that every professor should utilize BlackBoard. It not only helps organize the course for the professor, but also the student. Whenever I tell people I go to Central, their response is always "oh I bet you party a lot," which I don't. There is no college town here, it is more like a town that is trying to be revamped to look like a college town. I believe there is a lot of school pride. We always have a huge attendance at our sporting events.

I think CMU is too small. It's in a relatively small town without much to do in town.

The best thing about CMU is that it is a small enough campus to make a name for yourself, yet big enough to meet new people and tackle new challenges on a daily basis.

CMU is a mid-large size school with roughly 25,000 students. The campus is small enough to get from one end to the other in under 15 minutes, but big enough to space the buildings out. The students are for the most part friendly and easy to get along with. Football games and Wrestling are the major sports that draw the biggest crowds.

This school is large enough to give a really good variety in education choices, yet small enough to have that home-town feel. The students/staff/faculty are very friendly and welcoming to everyone that comes here. The most recent controversy was related to a student who hung nooses in one of the technical buildings (this was this past fall). He claimed it was a joke related to Halloween. The main experience I'll always remember about CMU surround my time with Phi Sigma Sigma - the BEST sorority on campus!!

Central has a great atmosphere. It is a very good community. The campus is beautiful and full of friendly staff.

I love Central Michigan because of the classes offered, the programs offered, and the professors at Central. Most of the professors I have had are really approachable. Most students do not take advantage of this. The one thing I would probably change about Central Michigan is the parties that do occur on the school nights. This school is a medium size and is very perfect for me. Most of my time on campus is spent in the class room or dorm room. CMU's administration is kind of really unknown to me. The noose hanging were a while ago. Just things that are current in news. There is a TON of school pride. Everyone is proud to wear the Central Michigan University Chippewas on their shirts, jerseys, hoodies, zip up sweatshirts, sweatshirts, sweatpants, hats, caps, shoes, pretty much anything that is wearable or can fit on a vehicle. Things that are unusual seem to be the "horror" stories about the buildings or well the haunted buildings. The one experience I will always remember is joining Alpha Sigma Alpha. Most frequent complaints about the students I would believe is that all of the dining commons except for the Larzelere and Robinson Dining Commons and the RFoC are closed.
