Big Picture

I think the best thing about CMU is the hospitality of the people who work and live in Mt. Pleasant. I think that CMU is just right meaning not to big or to small. It is small enough to where you can run into people more than once a month, but it is big enough to give you the full university feeling. I usually spend most of my time at the Delta Chi Fraternity House. The biggest problem I have with CMU is that they try to get as much money from you as they can fining you for insignificant things that weren't your fault. I believe that students have the most school pride during football season, it is a very big unifying event are the home football games.

Academic Life

All of my professors I have had here at CMU know my name except one, in a lecture class. To me this means alot because having good relaitonships with professors is important to me as a student. Most students are responsible and study the neccessary amount of time it takes to get the grades they want to receive. Class participation varies on the time and day of class. Mostly towards the end of the week, it goes down. I belive that CMU geared their education toward getting a job.

Student Body

I belive that it would take alot for a student to feel out of place at CMU. There is somthing here for everyone from all walks of life. Most students wear jeans to class. From time to time you will see students dressed up for presentations, etc. I do not belive students talk much about what there learning in class unless there talking to someone who has that class. My roomates and I occansionaly share things we learn, but not very often.

The Best Things

The size of the student population.

The Worst Things

Outside of Mt. Pleasant, it is all farmland
