Amanda

Central Michigan University is best known for its party scene and campus life.

Claudia

I have recently discovered me school is best for doing projects at finals time. It sucks at the time, but in the long run its very good real world experience. Because there is a very small list of options as to what to do in Mount Pleasant, most people just end up partying. Even though we party a lot, people are serious about their studies. We have top programs in the state and country. We also specialize in being technology forward.

Karen

CMU is simultaneously referred to as a teaching school and as a party school. Prospective students looking to excel in either of those areas can find that opportunity here, though perhaps one will take more discipline and hard work than the other.

CMU's Broadcasting and Cinematic Arts program is pretty well-known, as is the Speech Pathology program. We are currently building a medical school, as well.

Central Michigan University is best known for alot of things academically and environmentally. To name them all is just as difficult as to name just one or two. 71{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of CMU students volunteer or do community service, exceeding the national average for student volunteerism. This makes CMU best known for their friendly enviroment. Everyone is actually happy and they truely care about people and the enviroment in which they live in. CMU is also the first university nationwide to offer a four-year accredited athletic training program. Those students go directly on to become pro athletes or famous athletic figures.

Jessica

My school is best known for its football team. We have won the MAC Championship the past two years. I think a lot of this is due to the previously mentioned school spirit. Everyone gets extremely riled up for the football games and to socialize with the other excited students, faculty, and alumni. It adds a lot to the college experience.

Joshua

CMU is a teacher factory. Most people who attend CMU take introduction to teacher just to try it on for size, some don't go any further. CMU is also focused on perpetuating the American Dream by making future doctors, lawyers, and business executives. Finally, in the last seven years since I've attended CMU, there has been an increased effort to bring the football team into the sports spotlight. They seem to invest a lot of energy into teaching and football here at CMU.
