Overall a great school.
Overall 4.3
I loved my time at LSSU. The social aspect is here with clubs. There is so much to do outdoors. Job opportunities seem slim; but they do exist. The business school has exceptional professors and terrible ones, there isn't much in between. Take McCready. Take Ken Hopper. People complain but I really love the friendships I forged here. Plus Canada.

I just started here as a freshmen and I instantly made a friend group. Leave your door open and say hi to people, you'll have no problem making friends! The campus is small which makes it easy to get anywhere. Can't wait for the rest of the year!

Really good school. A lot of things that could be updated but a good place to go to get away from home. If you like a small school setting and nature it is a good college. A lot of people complain but its the same old stuff you see that people just complain about because they have nothing better to do.

Disappointed. they could have done a lot more with the campus. they need to redo a lot of the buildings. the norris center is a start, but the actual freshmen (girl) building I lived in. BORING!
Overall 1.4
They told me I was practically 100% guaranteed to get a job in my field. That didn't happen. It's hard to find a student who doesn't feel cheated. The board of trustees seems to have nothing but contempt for both students and their own staff.
Overall 1.4
Never in my life have I felt so cheated and deceived by any organization. Degree plans are structured to make four year graduation almost impossible due to the university bleeding funds. Professors are left to fend for themselves as the administration makes it clear they have absolutely no regard for students. Almost all upperclassmen regret coming
Overall 1.4
Thought this university was okay when I first got here. Now I'm always bored and sad. Cant wait to transfer downstate!
