My biggest complaint is the locals in town do not embrace the students, even though we are the economic driver for the town (and much of Calhoun County). And the housing shortage on and off campus is insane. But I love my school choice and feel it's a lot of bang for the buck. You are not just a number here.

The response to the 2018 tornado was amazing, but they are still rebuilding. That stuff takes time. The dorms (with the exception of Stadium/Meehan) are terrible. Off-campus housing is affordable. The town hates the students and school and don't foster good relationships, even though the town is nothing without the school/students. Typical. Any good eateries get run out from the nonsupport. It's sad. SO we all go to Atlanta on weekends or Birmingham to get away when needed. Not much to do on weekends unless it's on campus so it's a sadly a suitcase school for many. Faculty is good, with maybe 25% of them part-time and not worth damn. Some majors are a joke, but Business, Music Ed, Nursing and Education are top notch.

JSU response to the recent devastating tornado was great- a testament to the Administration to recover quickly and return to normal as soon as possible. They are doing all they can.

Not the fanciest place, the town is dated and not much to do. And many of the local residents hate us- that's pretty common in small college towns. But the people are what make JSU great. A good value for the money- lots of financial aid and in-state tuition is pretty easy to get.

I think overall, you are treated pretty well here. Lots of stuff to do on campus if you get involved. If you don't you will be miserable since the town is a dump with nothing to offer. The residents treat most students like we're an inconvenience. But there is nothing here but the school. Crime in the surrounding area is high, so be careful.

The people make this school great, since it can't compete with the large Universities- there just isn't a budget for that. But tuition and fees, while it seems fairly reasonable, it's pretty much what you would pay at Alabama or Auburn. Communications is kind of a joke. Outdated radio and TV equipment. they really need upgraded equipment. I just did my internship in Huntsville, and coming back to the studios on campus was depressing. Just some things to consider.
