Colorado State University-Fort Collins Top Questions

Describe the students at your school.

Eric

What do we where? Who feels out place? I don't know. Who cares about that stuff. I don't...

Charles

Students come from different backgrounds and the population is very diverse. I feel the school is in the middle politically and students do not talk about their potential earnings.

Carly

I dont have any experience with racial, religious groups on campus althought I am Jewish and I do know they there is a Jewish community offering me to be a part of it. I have seen soo many international students, more than I thought I would and I think that is great!

Justin

I feel that csu is a very open and frioendly campus. students from all walks of life seem to come together.

Tate

perfect

Andrew

CSU is just as diverse as they advertise the college to be. The only student that would feel out of place would be the ones who come to college to party they mind into the gutter. People parrty here, but it is not as big of a deterant as in other colleges. This is in part due to the town, Fort Collins. Fort Collins is not a small town, but also not a big city town. It is just in the middle and holds many enjoyable persuits that do not involve drinking. Even if you enter a party that will serve alchohol, you will not be presured to drink.

Whitney

At CSU, most everyone is welcome and made to feel welcome, but of course the school has its quirks, and it is more difficult to find different races among the students because it is predominantly white. However I dont think anyone would feel looked down upon or like they were being discriminated against. The financial situation of most students is that their parents have money so they have money. Funny enough though, Boulder or CU has the reputation for having a lot of yuppies. Many students aspire to be wealthy, but it definitely depends on who you are talking to. It really depends on the major.

Torry

I think there is a wide range of groups including racial, LGBT, etc. From what I see all the groups interact well, I have never seen it otherwise. Most CSU students are from Colorado

Scott

CSU isn't one of the most diverse schools out there, but there is some diversity. Walking through campus you would see a few black students, a few more arabic students, and a lot of white students. The students do come from all over the country.

Dan

Great

Lauren

I think CSU is very open to all races, religions and socal groups. No student should feel out of place.Most students are from Colorado but there are a good amount that are from other states.

John

The student body as a whole seems pretty relaxed. I don't think any student would feel out of place at CSU, there's a variety of different people. Students are generally casual when it comes to what they wear. Most students interact with each other, regaurdless of who they are. Most CSU students seem to be from somewhere in Colorado or somewhere international. Most students seem to be from the upper middle class. Depending on what classes you take, depends on which students are politically aware, and what grade they are in. it seems the younger students don't seem to be as political as the upperclassmen. Business and social work majors seem to be a little more political than the science or liberal arts majors. Campus seems to be divded equally politically.

Brian

CSU has so many unique types of people but everyone respects that and is very nice to one another. It seems no matter what group you are in you can meet someone in class and have a friendly attitude towards eachother even when your outside of the class.

Chandler

ASCSU, SLICE

Andy

I think there is a wide variety of students that go to CSU. i think students are pollitically aware and there is a great mixture differetn points of view.

Beth

I think we have a pretty diverse campus as far as personalities and steroe-types are concerned but our campus is predominately white.

Lane

Any minority would feel out of place i think. There is a small number of minorities, but that isnt a real problem because most of the people here are extremely nice. Until you get on the road of course.

Ryan

I think that the students at CSU are just like most young adults these days. We all have our own opinion and some base theirs off of there friends but there are a lot of independent thinkers out there. I think that the student body does a superb job in organizing events that raise awareness of political, social and world problems.

Reese

I do not think that any student would feel out of place here at CSU. The university does a fair job at featuring groups that are diverse enough. Every student here, in my opinion, should be able to find some club, group, or organization that would welcome them.

Jeff

I interact with all races and genders of students at CSU. Most students are caucasian, but they might be Australian or British, as they are in my dingin hall.

Charlie

CSU student body is diverse but isnt as diverse and would think it should be.

Tim

CSU is very welcoming to all types of people. There are always demonstrations and different groups of people in the square. ASCSU is very active in involving the whole student body in the decision making on campus. CSU professors are mostly left-wing in politics.

Kim

CSU is all about diversity.

Kate

Most students dress in jeans and tee shirts and most stucents are from colorado.

Toby

I dont believe their is any segregation within the school. people wear whatever they want dress, street clothes, suits or attire native to their country. People feel free towear what sets them apart from everyone else and or whatever they feel like.

Daniel

Students wear to class are what ever they want and no one judges them. Financially studetns are well off not rich but well off.

meg

politically apathetic for a college campus. i would encourage the entire body to care more.

Alex

CSU has a lot of different organizations on campus for students to join. What I like most is that I dont think CSU has students of certian races who only associate with their own race. I dont think many students would feel out of place here. Most students wear casual attire to class. Most CSU students are native from Colorado. The students are pretty politically active and aware. The student body does a good job at focusing on the school and creating plans to better it. I also like how the school tries to get the students involved by sending emails to the students with current events that are going on, and they also set up things that help students, such as the housing fair, and activities like movie nights. I think students here are also pretty focused and determined with their majors.

Jake

I think CSU needs to try and diversify more. We're seeing a lot of white middle class students. Most students wear jeans and a nice t shirt or long sleeve shirt to class. Sometimes a button down depending on the occasion. I think a very high upper class student would not be satisfied with CSU.

KJ

The typical CSU student is from Oklahoma, and is probably in the Greek community. A lot of people aren't Greek, but the most involved students are. We do have a gay population, but they seem to keep it underground since OU is such a conservative place. Minorities are happily accepted by other students, though. Students usually wear jeans to class and some sort of t-shirt. If you dress up a little people won't look at you strange. Just don't wear heels or anything. Since tuition is so cheap there are kids from all sorts of financial backgrounds. Students don't care too much about national politics.

There is not much racism at CSU. Maybe this is due to our less than blustering minority population. People are pretty chill, and we definetely have respect for one another.

Tyler

There is not that much racial or religious groups on the campus. csu is a majority white campus who are from colorado. i have not met very many people from out of state. Students wear t-shirt and short when its hot, but during the winter kids will wear jeans and a heavy jacket.

students wear whatever they want, and thats how it should be. Freedom of expression. I dont think most students are politically aware or active.

There are all types of different people at CSU. There is no telling what people will wear to class, I have seen people wear suits and others not even wearing shoes. Many students are from Colorado, but there are still plenty from out of state.

Very diverse.

Jessica

I feel that the CSU campus is very diverse and full of culture. I feel that the majority of people are very accepting and interested to get to know people that are different from them. I really don't think anybody could feel out of place at CSU.

There are no students that should feel out of place at CSU. I guarantee that no matter what your situation is, there is someone else on campus in your shoes. There are people from in state, anywhere in the U.S. and people from the other side of the world. There are many organizations on campus and nearly every ethnicity, race, religion, etc has an organization.

Andrew

Everyone is pretty chill.
