I occasionally bring my family and friends to the CSUN campus, and they always mention that it is very green. It is a very large campus, and it is definitely easy to get lost, but there are maps by every single building. The campus is also very pro on recycling. Everywhere you turn, you will most likely see a recycling bin. Other than that, the campus has a very woodland nature to it. There are trees and grass everywhere. Overall, I would say that CSUN has one of the greenest campuses in CSU system.

Styles

CSUN was the premiere learning environment for local students in Southern California until the universitoes got hit by budget cuts.

Lisseth

CSUN is a relatively small campus when compared to UCLA or UC Berkeley. However, it is big enough to get tired when you walk from class to class. Most of the buildings on the south-west part of campus are relatively new and modern. The buildings north-east are somewhat older, but aesthetically pleasing. Three of my favorite buildings on campus would have to be the Oviatt Library for it's grandness, Manzanita Hall for it's modern appeal, and the newly built Valley Performing Arts Center. Another thing to know about CSUN is that it has an amicable population of squirrels. There is not one day that I walk across campus without seeing two squirrels chasing each other or a squirrel following me for a piece of my snack.

CSUN tries to push for eco-friendliness, has many events to promote social connection between fellow Matadors that may be new or want to meet new people, the campus itself is generally well kept and clean, and overall its administration and staff are helpful; however trying to get the desired schedule when signing up for a semester is not possible until one has many units under their belt so always make sure to make a second and third back up schedules.
