Some of my professors know my name, mostly my art professors because there are smaller class sizes. I love my art history class because it is discussion based and my professor maintains a good interest level in the class. Class participation depends on the class, in my statistics class few people want to speak up unless forced to, this is uncommon though. Most of the students ask questions and participated in the lecture. I have taken many interesting classes and cannot decide on one unique one but I really enjoyed my 20th century modern European art history, typography (graphic design) and psychology. I rarely spend time with my professors outside of class. Sometimes I feel like some of the classes are too easy and requirements are not strict enough, but overall I am happy with my experience. I did wish that our graphic design program was more strenuous and all-encompassing. I have friends across the country in graphics programs and they are more prepared for the real world than I am and that is a huge deal in my competitive field.

A few of the professors at CSU know my name. My favorite classes so far have delt with Social Work. I study just in time for tests. Class participation is common in classes that aren't 400 students big. There are a few students that have intellectual conversations outside of class. I know my friends and myself are pretty competitive. The most unique class i've taken is social work for substance abusers. my major is accounting, and because I transferred with a 2.9 I cant take a lot of the classes I need for an accounting degree. I don't spend any time with teachers outside of class yet. I understand CSU's requirements, but there should be some exceptions, or maybe a loop hole for people to work the system. Some classes are geared towards getting a job, and some towards learning, it depends on your teacher.

All of the classes are very educating. I took appreciation of art thinking it would be an easy blow off class but it was actually very educational and interesting as well. The same went for Astronomy which i never thought i would take but the lab was the coolest thing since it was on top of one of the buildings at night and we just looked at the sky through telescopes!

Chandler

Hannah
All of my professors usually have very convenient times, and are willing to help.

The most unique class i have taken would be Human Clothing and Adornment Behavior. The class learned about stereotypes of dress, why people wear what they do, and how styles have changed throughout time to fit the culture we live in. I would recomend people to take it because it has some very interesting topics.
Beth
I know my professors names and they generally know mine unless it's in a big lecture hall. I Love my department. The Economics staff is great, and the Women's Student department is awesome and unique.

The education here is really geared toward getting a job after school. This is excellent in its own way. The come up with ways for you to get interns and co-ops while you are attending. This is the greatest part at CSU i believe.

I think that the academics at CSU are wonderful. Every class that I have taken has been enjoyable with great yeachers or professors and they take there job very seroiusly. The only thing I have had problem with is the Math Dept. I am currently taking M130 and it is a pain in the butt and it doenst seem very efficient at all.
