“I love CSU’s city‑campus mix, how easy it is to walk to downtown Cleveland from class, and the many clubs and internship chances, but from a past‑student view I’ll say the heavy commuter feel, some older dorms and transit‑dependent routine, and the slower‑growing campus vibe can all feel more real than the shiny downtown‑tour version once you’re living it every day.”
