What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?The worst thing about CSUDH is that there is not much school spirit because it is a “commuter school.”What’s the most frustrating thing about your school?I don’t have anything that frustrates me at CSUDH.

What is your school best known for?EducationDescribe your school in one sentence.Dominguez Hills is a wonderful campus, located in Carson, CA, and minutes away from long beach. After attending my first year of college, I found out Dominguez Hills has an fantastic Education program that push students to become a teacher if there majored in Education. Any students planing to become a teacher, CSUDH is the school to be. Majority of CSUDH professors have PHD’s and are willing to push their student to the direction they need to go to graduate. This is not a popular school, which means less students and more one on one tutoring with your professor.

Describe your school in one sentence.People will make you feel welcomed; it is an overwhelmingly friendly environment.If you could change something about your school, what would you change?If i could change something about my school, it would have to be the size, it is extremely crowded and the food court is always full. One rarely has time to each on campus because of the long lines. Other than expanding the school’s campus, i wouldn’t change anything else.
