What are some stereotypes about MTSU students?

We apparently hold a reputation for being overrun with parties, and also being able to consume legendary amounts of alcohol in a heroic amount of time.

Are the stereotypes accurate?

In certain scenarios, but every student you see is not stumbling drunk. Maybe slightly hung over, but not completely inebriated... yet.

MTSU: The Big Picture

MTSU is an amazing campus for student/faculty interaction. We, as in one entity and not an individual, swim in school pride. There are often controversial protests and statements of all kinds, but the point of the matter is not holding up a sign and pumping one's fist; it is the fact that we are allowed to pump our fists and hold that sign while voicing our opinion. The faculty gives the students absolute respect, and in turn our student body reacts positively and a symbiotic relationship is formed.

There are need of improvements, after all: no campus is perfect. The major issue is parking, or better yet, the lack thereof. Students usually have to arrive about half an hour before their class begins so they will not be late. Yeah, it's that bad.

MTSU Academic Life

Most of the professors, despite some having a massive number of people in their class, will remember your face. Some will even go the extra mile and remember your name. What I find unique and appealing about MTSU is the diverse classes that are available for one to take. Everything from military science to yoga, the options rest at your finger tips.

MTSU's Student Body

Like I said in the previous question, student life is prominent. If one chooses to go to this school, than social interaction is bound to occur. It is just going to happen!

As far as our financial range goes? We are all in college... do you think we have money coming out of our orifices? I can tell you where our finances lay, not in our wallets that is for sure. Though, personally I always manage to scavenge the change for that chicken sandwich in the afternoon.

MTSU Student Activities + Social Life

I cannot even begin to touch up or even describe the amount of activities MTSU offers. You want to go scuba diving? No Problem! How about Tai Chi? You like oriental martial arts? You can find it right here. You like climbing rocks? Whadda ya know! There are clubs and classes for that too! You will have to try not to fit in.

MTSU Naked Truth

Screw parking.

In Closing ...

What's the worst thing about MTSU?
Parking.

What's the best thing about MTSU?
The freedom the campus has to offer.
