Sam Houston is a fantastic school for History and Criminal Justice majors. We have the fastest growing history department in the United States and the faculty (in the history department) are all amazing. Other than that this school basically sucks. The some students are driven to do well, and, lucky for us, we don't have very much competition to be the best. However, it would be nice to have some driven, like-minded students. There are things to do outside of school as long as your creative. The one thing I greatly dislike about Sam Houston is the fact that there is a lot of crime and no one does anything about it. In one semester I have had laundry stolen from the Laundromat (and the university does not provide the dorms with individual washers and dryers so there's no other choice) many times and even had my doormat taken right from my front door. My friend's car was broken into and his window smashed in. The worst part about that is that the Residence Life people and the Resident Advisors don't care. It is a good college, if you take yourself seriously and apply yourself. The classes (at least in history) are difficult, but not absolutely unreachable. However, I would not go so far as to call it an intellectual college…
