Central Washington University Top Questions

Tuition is increasing and fincial aid/scholarships are being cut. It is mainly turning into a school where only athelets can go to.

The worst thing about Central Washington University is advertisement. There are unique and intersting events that students do not always find out about until the last minute. Advertisement is better in individual residence halls in terms of hall programs or meetings. But, for the university sporting events, professional speakers, and social events, advertisment is lacking.

The worst thing about my school is the food. There are rare choices for healthy eating. And the choices given are hardly recognizable as food. A salad everyday is nice but it would be even nicer to have a veggie station where there are fresh fruits and vegetables everyday.

My school is located in a small town; therefore excessive partying takes place. I feel a student should have a broader array of options for fun. A small town such as Ellensburg also does not allow students to develop the kind of cultured and worldly perspective as they would in a city. Personally, I enjoy discovering new places, meeting many different people, and participating in music and art. All of these past times are extremely limited in a place like Ellensburg, so if you attend Central Washington University, be prepared to get imaginative and create your own kinds of fun.

If there is anything to be said about the shortfalls of Central Washington University, it may be that it happens to be located in an agrarian-based community, small in size and not necessarily reflective of the multicultural pride that is held so proudly by Central Washington University.

I have absolutely no complaints about my school! Every professor, class, counselor, and student are so helpful and respectful; the campus is also beautiful and unique. However, if I had to suggest ONE thing that isn't magnificant at my school it would be the housing. Most of the residence halls are rather old and are in need of some remodeling and updating. Otherwise this small detail, I love my school and would reccomend it to anyone interested!

The worst thing about this school is that it can be windy and cold here. I am sure there are not many people who like the wind.

The worst thing I consider about my school is the general education credits we have to take. I understand like four or five credits but pretty much a whole years worth just seems like way to much. The reason for this is because we are here paying for classes we want to take and some classes we like aren't offered as general education courses.

Less opportunity. There are not as many student clubs and organizations at my school as there would be in those that are larger. However, to look at this is a postive sense, this presents us students with the opportunity to take a stand and start something ourselves. Currently, a group of students has been fighting to start a greek system here at central. I believe we will all appreciate the opportunities more when we are the ones having to create them. Still, there is less presented to us and not as many resources available to utilize.

I don't hate my school. I just wish the winters in Ellensburg were better and easier to get around.
