Not so bright
How can I start this comment? Well, at CCS once you made your decision in taking industrial design, you should expect a load of unlimited work force heading your way. Of course, there's a purpose for every decision you made. This place isn't quite the best place for you to "socialize". It's strictly professional and serious. I can say every student around me are very rigorous and creative. But after all these work, what are the benefits?

I'm in my first semester, and so far I'm very happy with the school. The Student Life Office plans lots of great activities and outings for students, which is a plus. The housing at the ACB is GREAT - huge apartments. Downside is no meal plan - you have to buy your own groceries. People are all very friendly and helpful to eachother. Some programs are more competitive than others, i.e. transportation design. My dept. (interior design) is very small this year. I'm only taking one actual interior design course so I can't comment too much on the dept. itself. The Foundations department is pretty good so far. I've learned a lot about drawing and perspective, which are important. My Color class is very interesting as well. The workload is not huge for me right now, but it all depends on your department and your teachers and how you manage your time. The cost of supplies can be difficult at times -- but this will be true for all art schools. I spent about $400 on books and supplies first semester. Again this changes depending on your dept. for example fine arts and crafts are very expensive compared to interior design or animation. But overall I'm very happy here, the area is great and there's lots to do, the students are fun to be with, and I haven't had any major problems with teachers yet.

I have encountered both the most wonderful, inspirational teachers at CCS, and some that are very hard skinned and not worth my time. There are irregularities and areas of CCS's campus that maybe others would think not the best - but it is this environment that I fell in love with the charm and size and feel of the buildings. The lack of loud visual decor shows that there are more important things occurring here. It is a place that does not force it's views upon you... but allows you to imagine your own ideas and place them there while attending. It's a beautiful place with a lot of history. And most people who have gone on and left says they can't stop from coming back to visit and help.
