NC State is well, NC State. You will either like it or hate it. Overall, the educational quality is good, but there are many professors and TA's that do not deserve to teach on a college campus. State has the rep of being a redneck and farmer school. There are many different majors besides ag... but I will say there are many racist people on campus. In the classroom, it is what ever you make it. If you study and just go to class and pay attention, you will get a good grade. Then you have your ball players that don't go to a single class and still pass, but I would not say that State is an easy school, but some get special treatment. Going to basketball games and other athletic events is one thing that makes NC State fun. Raleigh and the social life at State is one of the thing that make State suck. Raleigh is just boring for me and the cops are like nazis and break up every single off campus party there is. There are good and bad with attending State. Just make sure you do your research and find out where to stay on campus because some of the dorms suck.

There is not much to do in Raliegh compared to other cities, the campus is crowded and parking is a problem and there is never enough study space in the library. However,there is a good course offering and most of the professors are helpful.

Maybe if State was not in Raleigh, it would be a whole lot better. Raleigh has to be the most boring place in the USA for college aged students. NCSU is really big, and it is easy for you to just become a number. Living on campus allows you to make friends, but the dorms and on campus food are really horrible. The campus itself is not very pleasing, it feels more like an industrial park with brick everywhere. People normally stick with their own kind as far as race goes, as there is some racial tension on campus. There is little to do on campus as far as events and clubs go, but being in the ACC is a major plus as going to football and basketball games are really fun although you have to drive a few minutes away from campus to get there.
Perceived Campus Safety: B, Individual Value: F
