I am an apparel merchandising major, and I know I have been pretty happy with all of my instructors. They are all very knowledgeable about the industry and most of them are well known in the industry as well. I have some difficulites just because my major is small. So there isn't a whole lot of flexibility with the school schedule. Sometimes classes are offered only in the spring or fall or sometimes every other year. I also really want to study abroad and there are very few options with an apparel merchandise major, unless you study abroad for some of the core competancy classes.

I know my professors last names but that is about it. My least favorite class is when you have to take a ton of notes and it seems likes the teacher is just reading the notes that she is giving you and is not really taking the time to teach you. I do not spend time with my teachers outside of class unless i need help.

I haven't been here that long but it seems that the proffessors here are willing to establish a relationship with their students. The Students also seem intellegent.

The academics at csu are challengeing just like any other college. The teachers are all friendly and will help you at any time.

It's up to you. There are big lectures, but professors are willing to get to know you if you are willing to get to know them. Go to office hours, ask questions. With smaller classes, you cannot just hide in the back. Watch out for the pre-vet students; they are the most competitive and cut-throat when it comes to grades and classes.

Pretty much all of my professors know my name. My favorite classes are the small ones were you really get to interact and not be scared because hundreds of other students are listening. I am a business major and I love the College of Business here at CSU...they are there only to help the students and its awesome!

so far id say its, for me anyways, that its geared for learning, i dont even know what i want to do and i dont seem to be having any ideas dropped my way. my professors have no idea who i am, and i rarely see them outside of class. class participation isnt common, at least not in the large classes i'm in. although i recently declared my major as business, i am not involved in anything outside of classes, but that is my choice.

I like that the professors are strict but also have understandings for things that come up and are willing to work w\ the students and make acceptions.

At Csu there is a variety of classes that you can take which is very helpful when choosing the coure classes that you might not want to take but end up being very intresting in the end. Only in my freshman year I would say that CSU can be considered for both learning and preparing for a job depending on what your major might be.

I am a Health and Exercise Science Major. This is one of the more popular majors at CSU because it is geared towards students who would like to go to grad. school and students who would like to be done in four years. One of the acadmeic requirements just in my major is you have to have a 3.0 or higher in four of the required courses. Some students feel that one class should not reflect how they do in all of their classes. I do not spend time with my professors outside of class, but I do see them and talk with them if I run into them. One of my professors is actually the advisor for one of the clubs I am in, so I do have a closer relationship with her than with some of my other professors. I would have to say that the education is geared towards getting a job. There are a few classes that a more for learning amd knowledge, but the majority of the classes prepare you for a job as soon as you graduate.
