My experience so far at Texas Southern has been great! The students are pretty friendly (when they're not on their phone) and the professors are great, and the administrators are very helpful and treat you like family. When I was first trying to get enrolled, there were bumps in the road. However, they pulled some strings together and got me through the door.
On the other hand, the school pride isn't the same that it once was back around 2012-16. Not everyone attends the games or campus functions, but will attend all the parties that aren't school affiliated.

I would like to see more food options at my school! We are a very diverse school and I appreciate that as a whole the school is very inclusive in everything. They don't discriminate and they're very inviting. The overall environment and atmosphere is friendly. Professors are super kind and willing to help all students who show interest. The Social atmosphere is great too. Almost all students are approachable and friendly. The courses aren't that difficult but they are not easy either. As long as you put in the effort you are most likely to get a A in the course.
Attending Texas Southern University was huge break through in my life. It was the experience I needed as a young college student. Everyone at Texas Southern University is very welcoming , and friendly. The campus is very divers, and everyone is full of life. I was always told that Professors don't take time to learn names. Well, my Professors are very helpful, and understanding they take their time to learn each and everyone of us. The staff throughout the campus are very direct and always available at assisting us. Another thing I strongly admire about Texas Southern University is the campus life. You'd think it'll be very complicated to make friends at college, well I disagree. I've meet so many students that we don't even know each others names, but we speak every time we see one another. That's what you call a friendly environment, where nobody feels left out. One thing I believe my college should improve on is communication. As students we should always be alert on whats going.
