Lamar University Top Questions

How hard my classes are that i received A's in, and my GPA.

Most people my age have graduated college already and only ask me how my classes are going. My main comment to them is that because I am an older student, the professors tend to treat me with great respect.

The fantastic engineering department and technical trade schools. Lamar University started as Lamar State College of Technology and has always emphasized the degree/course plans which have enabled it's students to not only work in technical fields, but also prepares students to work in the local petroleum and related industries immediately upon graduation. Those students interested in "jump starting" their employment can gain an associates degree in a trade field that enables the students to earn a very good living immediately upon graduation.

when I brag about lamar to my friends I tell them that the library and rec centers are good.

about the teachers in my department

The fact that Lamar is the perfect size. The classroom sizes are just right. Not to crowded but not to small either. Your not just a number to your professors they take the time to talk to you when you need it. Also the dorms are really nice, they are newly built and well kept up so you feel right at home. Their is also an all you can eat buffet style dining hall which is also newly built. The campus is kept up real nicely. LU is the place to be. GO CARDS!!!!
