I'm going into my sophmore year GSU and I would say first the dorms at GSU are not the greatest. To me the girls dorms are fine. Jones is junk, Wheatly is too, but everything else is good and there are 8 other girls dorms. Campus life is always entertaining. Something is going on at GSU good or bad. The school is growing I saw a huge increase in the enrollment from my first semester to the second. Plus I worked in the admissions office (I looked at each and every appilcant) and I saw an even larger increase for this fall. We also have a new president and I personally spoke to him (he is a go getter). From talking to him and following the news on GSU, that proves to me he is starting to get the job done there(I don't know about you but I want my school to be known for success when I graduate not only for a job but personal pride). GSU is constantly growing with new buildings like the new dorms for the upperclassmen, the new arena they are starting to build, the plans they have for the music building ( Dunbar Hall), they built a new place for the radio station, and the Amry & Navy buildings have been renovated . GSU is progressing but she has a long way to go. Academically some of the people are behind I am sometimes shocked at the degree of the students, but GSU will improve that with starting next fall a higher standard that will make GSU harder to get into than its neighbor Louisiana Tech. I believe they are setting a higher standard of a 3.0 or higher from high school and the ACT will be set to like 20 or something I'm not exactly sure what it is.

Personally as a rapidly progressing individual I see GSU as opportunity to take all that others are leaving. My professors are great they are teaching not to be better than the other black schools but are forcing me to compare myself to the students of the Ivy league schools and compete on that level. I also believe that it does not matter what school you go to, what matters is what you take from it.

If you have any other questions feel free to ask.

Yeah i am currently finishing my sophmore year and i stay in Jewett the top honors dorm. Currently i am a biology psych major and a R.A. and i also work in admissions. Grambling is a place for you to come and learn. If you are the type who wants to party all day long then it's not for you. We have nice activities and homecoming and springfest can be crunk. The school is basically what you make of it. My freshman year i cried and cried b/c there was nothing to do but that was also b/c i had a car and i went home every weekend whichmeant that i missed out on everything.
Our new president is getting the job done. By speaking with him i find that he is about his business and doesn't want anything associated w/ him to be bad. he has already taken steps to renovate new dorms. He is letting freshman move into the new apartment style dorms he has closed down the old dorms for renovation and he has fired plenty of incumbants who can't seem to type. Now i've visited alot of colleges before choosing grambling and i have to say that i made the right choice for me. The teachers and faculty are very helpful. they go out of their way to make sure that everything that you need is done and there i cant say that about many other schools. I've completed an intern at a national lab in chicago and i have to say if it wasn't for my professors i probably would not have recieved it. :roll:
Just look out for what's right for you and youll be happy :lol:
