FSU provides an engaging, yet quaint environment. An extremely diverse campus provides connections with people from all different backgrounds. The campus's small size limits its ability to host large events, but it still manages to fit in a surprising amount of gatherings in just one semester. The campus food really depends on the day, Sodexo can be a coin flip!
Framingham State is a great place that offers an array of activities, clubs, sports, and many more opportunities for engaging with students and teachers. After my first semester, I can say that I truly feel apart of our Framily which is what we are called here at FSU. It is very diverse and everyone accepts each other for who they are. The professors are caring and helpful and truly want us to succeed, if you ask for help they will do whatever they can. FSU has an awesome disability center and great tutors. One thing I would like to see changed at FSU would be the class selections and availability.
Framingham State University was the best educational decision I have made. Framingham State has small class sizes and faculty that work very hard to help their students succeed. Framingham State is a dry and smoke-free campus, which I like. The library is open late year-round to allow students to have a quiet place to work. The only issue that I had with Framingham State, was the Career Center. I once went to the Career Center to get help with my resume and finding a job. They were very unhelpful and only provided me with sites where I MIGHT be able to find a job. I learned that Framingham State focuses mainly on Business and Teaching jobs and is not well versed in Wildlife Biology/Ecology jobs. I think that the Career Center should help every student find a job. I highly recommend Framingham State for anyone looking for a State school that will help prepare you for the "real world."
