Read Hundreds of Quotes from Cal State Northridge Students

Read samples from the Cal State Northridge guide below:

Academics

“Some teachers are extremely into what they teach, but most of my teachers make me want to slit my wrists by the end of class.”

Diversity

“CSUN is so diverse I had culture shock when I first came here. But it has been good for me because I grew up in a small town. The diversity that is always present helps you be less fearful of things you don’t know about.”

Guys & Girls

“Some of the guys are very cute, sweet, handsome and overall gentlemen to women. The men are manly, caring and not stuck on themselves. They don’t treat you badly, rather they treat you with respect and dignity. They are fun and easy to talk to. But there...”

Athletics

“I don’t think that sports are that big. The only CSUN sports team I know of is the ice hockey club team, and that’s only because I used to play for them.”

Academics

Although CSUN students aren’t known for being the brightest minds in the country, they are dedicated to what they learn. Most of the professors take roll, but you won’t hear students complaining about it because the majority take school seriously. Professors also enjoy being in the classroom.

Although general education classes average about 45 people, upper-division classes shrink to about 20 to...

Diversity

On an any given day at CSUN, you might see an Asian American club fair, a Capoeira demonstration, a political group handing out flyers, a MEChA or CAUSA protest, a same-sex marriage on the lawn, a memorial of the Armenian genocide, or a number of other activities that indicate the high level of diversity at CSUN. Although Caucasian people make up the largest percentage at the school, that number has been growing smaller each year. The diversity at CSUN reflects the diversity of the valley and Los Angeles,...

Guys & Girls

Considering that Northridge is only a half hour from Hollywood, you can bet many CSUN students take their appearances to another level. Many dive into the ever-changing trends of fashion and come out wearing the “it thing,” complete with the latest jewelry and hairstyle. With so many malls and outdoor shopping at affordable prices, it’s not as expensive as you might think to maintain your looks. For the most part, the social scene at CSUN is in front of Sierra Tower. Many students who are in sororities and...

Athletics

Despite CSUN’s varsity teams’ success as a Division I school, not many students attend the games. Certain teams are more popular than others. The men’s basketball team has their faithful Bullpit made up of students who attend every game and stand the entire time yelling obscenities at the other team, and turning their back when the opposing team enters the court. But most teams don’t receive the same recognition. The majority of students who attend games are athletes themselves who come out to support other...
