Central Connecticut State University

College is what you make of it. But if all you're given is twigs and rocks, you cant make much of it.

Avoid living on campus at all costs. My friends' dorm does not have air conditioning and there's bugs all over the building. The food they serve is completely ridiculous. If you want dinner at 6:30, you're gunna be stuck with a bowl of frosted flakes. I once had a cheeseburger, which made me so sick I was throwing up for an hour.

The party scene is almost non existent. You can have small dorm parties of 5 or 6 people, but the real "parties" are a hundred people crammed into a small house drinking hard lemonade. Half the time, these parties are shut down in under an hour

The school tried to push this gimmick that "theres always something to do on campus" which is an absolute lie. Apart from most kids going home on weekends, the most that there is to do is attend pointless speeches about political correctness.

The academics here are very inconsistent. Some professors here actually do their job and will help you, but most couldnt even be good highschool teachers. The english department is riddled with self-absorbed, hostile or absolutely clueless professors. I've had a couple good professors here and there, but for the most part, I'd rather have my old highschool teachers over these people.

The department and institution staff are down right terrible. They will tell you your FAFSA was not complete, when it clearly is. Having trouble with credits? Your advisers don't even know what to do. Undecided major? Your adviser doesn't even care about you. Need to get in touch with a department member? They're conveniently always on vacation every time. I once got a letter in the mail telling me I was late on my tuition, but it was under the wrong name. Utter incompetence surrounds this school.If this school is even on your list at this point, just scratch it off. It's the most depressing place I've ever been to and I regret going here and wasting a year of my life.

Sounds of sirens comforting to you? Then staying on campus is a must! I hear sirens everynight when I try to sleep. It's like my own personal lullaby.

Do your friends and family always support you and make you feel good about yourself? Going to Central will ensure you know how it feels to be treated like horse shit! It prepares you for the real world. Overall, Central is a fantastic school if you are, or strive to be, dead inside.
