Top Rated 14 University in Arcata, CA - A Smart Choice for the Future part 2

Lilly M If I knew how many break-ins, theft issues, homeless drug addicts lived in and around this area, along with hundreds of students living in their cars due to minimal housing I would have never applied to this school. It was the worst mistake of my life coming here, and I’m grateful I moved back home and attended a different university.

Ryan Nelson Great place to get an education. Location is like no other

Royce Garner This school will leave you homeless, broke, and stranded. The community is overpriced for the low wages and hours that are avaliable ... go to a school that cares about the student success. If you wanna pay high tuition high rent and high food costs this is your school.

FM As retired university staff and researcher, we like visiting higher ed campuses during road trips. We had allotted 20 minutes for a drive around at Cal Poly Humboldt. During a short walk around, my eyes were caught by a vibrant mural around a staircase in Balabanis House. We went in to take pictures of the mural and was greeted by a friendly staff who not only welcomed us but also shared with us the Centers mission and activities. It was obvious that Mr. Frank Herrera, the Centers Coordinator, was extremely dedicated to the Center and has an immense compassion and sense of calling to the causes and the students the Center serves. In this age of divisiveness, general morose, epidemic of depression, and a culture of hate, the existence of a Center for justice, equity, and inclusion is crucial for the mental and physical health of college students. I am so impressed by Mr. Herrera and his enthusiasm, I decided to write this to show my support for what the Center is doing.

Fall semester hours 8am-5pm, Monday - Friday.

Austin Hernandez Well Bird enclosures are needed to be updated. With extra crates os bird seeds

Cyril Oberlander Beautiful quad, often a great place to meet, listen to music, listen to students talking about important issues, or just a fun place for a picnic. UC has several options for food, coffee, etc. While here, I often walk up the stairs to Founders Hall, then down along the Kinesiology building, along the fish hatchery, and back around up through the arts area. Fun walking around the campus.
