Oregon State University has a beautiful campus, with great diversity in all categories from people to food, classes and activities. There is always something going on, and the university is amazing at letting us know the details! No matter what you study, or background you come from, OSU offers something for everyone.
I loved my time in Corvallis! If you’re looking for academic excellence in a chill environment surrounding by incredible natural beauty, Oregon State in the right place for you! I had access to professors, research, dozens of electives and a great student culture.
As an Ecampus student I feel well-equipped to have in-depth conversations pertaining to my degree in Women’s, Gender, & Sexuality Studies. My program and staff have been amazing and truly practice their teachings. There is a disconnect between the WGSS program and the rest of the university. While the administration in WGSS and QS educate students on equality and inclusivity, other departments, especially leadership o er the university lack this knowledge. Through terminology used in other courses by professors and students, it’s clear that the school leadership need to be educated on similar ideologies that Liberal Arts students learn.
For Ecampus students, it seems that many of the professors in the bacc core classes are checking boxes without teaching. Oftentimes students don’t receive grades until 3-4 weeks after assignments were due. By the time grades are posted, it’s too late to correct errors or ask for help because we are near midterms.
