My favorite is health and wellness... my prof Ryan donnovan is the bomb... 20 points for him! my least fav is my CIS 150 class... its SO MUCH BUSY WORK! its gross. students vary in their study habbits, some don't study at all, others all the time.calss participation is common in some classes, others not so much. Intellectual conversations outside of class is rare for most... not for me though ;) Students can be competitive...

Some professors know my name, depends on how big the class is. My favorite class is probably my art class. My least favorite class is my chem. class. I personally dont study that often, maybe the night before or the morning of an exam. Class participation is common. There are always at least a couple of students that participate in class conversations everyday. I am sure students have intellectual conversations outside of class all the time, me personally, not usually. Students are very competitive wether it is between, individuals or just in general a large group of students. The most unique class I have taken would have to be my sociology class. It's not that the subject is unique it was the teacher and the assignments and the conversations in class that made is unique, it was great mostly because of the teacher though. The major that I am in is fashion merchandising. The fashion program at this school rocks, it is very challenging which isnt what I had expected at all but it is a good thing. The only thing I do not like about this department is my advisor. I do not see my professors outside of class. I find CSU academic requirments very reasonable. I think that CSU's education is geared more towards learning for a job but they also have a lot of opportunities concerning gaining a job after college and getting interns as well.

Most of my teachers know my name, or at least recognize my face outside of the classroom. I like all my classes in my major. All of the teachers I have had are intelligent and knowledgable about their specific subject. I especially liked the class, Interpersonal Communications because it was relevant to everyday life. I think that everyone should be required to take this class to further understand why people communicate the way they do. I do not spend time with teachers outside of class unless I need to talk with them about an assignment specifically.

yes, fitness and wellness best class, least CHEM 111. depends on the student, depends on the class, not really, some are competitive, yeah i spend time with professors.

I do enjoy most of my classes at CSU. Some classes are larger then I would like. However their are those classes I would rather not be noticed in.
Morgan
Basically the few amazing teachers at CSU make up for the hundreds of not so smart ones.
Sarah
No. My favorite is Cultural Anthro. Least fav is Biological anthro. Class participation is normally found between 3 to five students. I am still uncertain about my major. No i do not spend time with professors out of class.

In my case professors do know my name because I make a point to get to know them as well. However, I have been in a lot of classes where I don't even think they would recognize me if they saw me on campus. Certain classes/departments participation in class is common, however I think that really just depends on the size of the class. In smaller classes it's easier to have deep discussions, but in big classes I think people are intimidated to speak. I think the education at CSU is alright. There are some really phenomenal professors out there who genuinely care about students and want them to actually learn, not just memorize and regurgitate. I think overall though, the education at CSU is geared toward getting a job, not necessarily learning for the sake of learning.

Before I came to college I was scared that the classes were going to be ridiculously hard and the classrooms were going to be huge and terrible. This is definitely not the case. Although the first year classes are large, they are just right to transition you from high school academia to college academia.

I study quite a bit I feel compaired to other people I hang out with. I feel quite a bit of student at this school actually do take their academics somewhat serious.
