There is a mixture of traditional and non-tradional students in the classroom. There are many other students that are studying here from abroad as well. The classroom sizes are small for the most part and you do get that personal attention from your instructor if you need to do so. The class sizes are usually around forty people, unless you are in a core class such as biology, it is a little larger, but you still can be noticed, unlike a larger university.

Amy Jo

Unless you're living in the dorms or you're part of a sorority or fraternity, you're almost bound to feel disconnected. I tend to go to school and leave, like most other commuters. However, there are several groups that students can join to make them feel more connected to other students and give themselves more of the "college life" feel. My personal favorite is an organization called Christian Challege. It's a really good, fun, safe place to meet, and it's right across the street from campus at River Community Church. There's really no better way to connect with people than in a church-type setting. I highly recommend Challenge. They meet Thursday nights for worship and lesson time, and small groups meet throughout the week. It's an easy way to have and keep friends and to stay connected to other people, whether you're on campus or a commuter student.

Most students at Wichita State University seem to be indifferent to most things. It is hard to get them involved in any sort of activity unless it involves alcohol or video games. They do not seem to take any pride in their school or want to make a difference in any way.
