The best thing about CMU is the way the campus is set up. It's easy to get to classes. Another good thing about CMU are the people here. It's a very friendly place.
When I tell people I go to CMU they react as if they know I like it there
I spend most of my time at my fraternity house
I like CMU's administration. However, they could be a little more open minded towards Greeks
There is a HUGE amount of school pride at CMU. People who go here are proud to say they're a CMU Chippewa
The one experience I'll always remember is Leadership Safari freshman year.

The best thing about Central Michigan is the campus, the size is just right and allows for you to really become fimiliar with your surroundings. I love the size of the student body here, I love the fact that I can meet new people everyday, but at the same time I see alot of fimiliar faces. I spend most of my time at the Delta Chi house off campus, but the library is awesome here, its the perfect setting, calming and quiet.

Central's campus is awesome in that everything is grouped together and easily accessible. Many colleges have campuses that are so large students have to take a bus to get to class. Mt Pleasant is a nice, safe community with lots available for students attending CMU. The amount of student pride on campus has seemed to grown since my freshman year here. More students attend sporting events and wear CMU's colors.

The best thing about central is that it is large enough to feel like a college but small enough not to be over whelming. They teachers here care. The food in the dorms is amazing. There is so many opportunities to be involved. The football games are so much fun even if we loose. I spend a great deal of time around campus during the day because I live off campus. I love how I can go pretty much anywhere on campus and be comfortable. I love spending time in the library, labs around campus, or random study rooms. They are great places to study and don't usually have very many distractions.
I'd like to change tuition rate. I think that central should offer more scholarships. I wish there were more job opportunities.

The best thing about central michigan is its classes. I really enjoy some of the teachers that I have had. If i could change anything I would make it a bigger town. My school is just the right size for me. I spend most of my time in the library studying. CMU's administration is okay. I dont feel like the advisors are very good. There is some school pride but not as much as there probably should be. I will always remember St. Pattys day my freshman year.
Kim
The community is the best part of CMU...people seem to be genuinely caring and nice!

I like CMU because there aren't huge lectures. You get to know a lot of your professors, which I think makes you a more successful student. I think the school is just the right size to get the college experience without getting lost in the crowd. When I tell people I go to CMU, they usually ask me if I'm going to be a teacher or if I party a lot, but you probably get that one at any school. I spend most of my time either at the library or at my sorority house. I don't know much about the admin. at my school because not much is really brought to out attention. The biggest recent controversy was the nooses in the ET building. There is a ton of school spirit on campus. A lot of people go to sporting events and participate in school sponsored activities. I'll always remember living in the dorms my freshman year. It's a great experience. The most frequent student complaints are the icy sidewalks.

One of the best things about Central is the welcoming atmosphere one experiences when entering our campus. It is the reason I chose to attend Central and the reason I plan to stay here. People are generally friendly and you can always find help if you need it.
Tara
When I tell people I go to Central they automatically come back at me and say, "Oh, the party school." Yet, I think that every school is a party school and think you see the same amount here as any other school. I think that Central is just the right size. However, I do think there could be a lot more diversity. I think racism and discrimination might be an ongoing controversy at Central.
Danielle
Central Michigan is amazing! I think it is just the right size. When I tell people I go to central, they are not surprised. It fits me. I spend most of my time on campus in Grawn and Wightman. I think the administration is helpful for the most part. The biggest recent controversy on campus might have been the whole "noose" thing. I think everyone has incredible school pride. So much better than high school. nothing is unusual about CMU except we do not have a mall and that makes some people frustrated. I will always remember the day I moved to campus my freshman year. I wouldn't take that day back for a second. It was when my most exciting and happiest moments of my life started. Most frequent student complaint is the parking at central. There is always a cost to park everywhere. and for students that live close to campus, it is hard for them because if it is storming and they want to go to the library, they just have to hope they a.) have quarters to stay for the appropriate time length, and b.) hope they can find a parking spot at a meter, as close to the library (or desired building) as possible.
