<p>Pros:</p>

<p>-Learn by doing philosophy. Almost all majors subscribe to it and it is clearly visible in all the interesting labs around campus, especially in engineering, architecture, and the collins college. Did you know students actually run a 4 star restaurant and hotel on campus?
-School is known by recruiters and graduates are well sought after for their readiness to enter the workforce.
-beautiful campus, horses, gardens, ponds, hikes, hills, vistas.
-food is OK.
-Residential Suites.
-diversity
-Close to entertainment in Pasadena, Los Angeles, and the beach and skiing.
-Affordable</p>

<p>Cons:</p>

<p>-School spirit mainly due to lack of division 1 athletics, though the basketball team has done well in division 2 and games are sometimes well attended.
-Social life. The residential suites have added a lot of life to campus and it’s one of the largest communities in the CSU after CP SLO, but more can be done.
-Neighborhood. It’s in a quiet part of town and close to Diamond Bar and Walnut, but the school needs more commercial activity immediately adjacent and walking distance to campus. You currently have to drive to do anything. I hope things change in this regard as well.</p>
