As a prominent member of the local community I would like to thank all of the students attending DSU and alumni with out them being here and having a university here, this town would never have become as prosperous as it has so thank you.

Do not go to this University. It is horrible!
Overall 1.4
This is NOT A GOOD SCHOOL. There are MANY reasons for this. First, all offices that are supposed to serve and help the students, DONT! They are terrible about losing documents of yours, the cafeteria is horrible, the students are rude. Also, the professors are very narrow minded and have too high of expectations in some general courses! Not worthit

IF I COULD START OVER AND CHOOSE ANOTHER SCHOOL, I WOULD GO BACK IN TIME AND DO SO.

Expect the caf to be terrible. Food in the student union is okay. Burger studio takes forever so if you don't have a lot of time I suggest somewhere else. Social life is little to none outside of sororities and frats. The dorms are outdated a bit. Mantainence most of the time took forever to fix small things like lights blown. SBS is the unhelpful.
