CU is not a good school... There are a few good parts but the rest of it is absolute garbage; it is full of lazy rich kids that just want to party

- Balgair 9y agoMeh. The STEM side is really good, can't speak for the rest though. Also, ahem, there are 4 campuses, haven't you seen the billboards and the A-Line? /s
- w00tw001 9y agoMaybe the STE, definitely not the M! Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've heard the students are even more burnt out at UCD. I have no idea what UCCS is like though.
- Balgair 9y agoThe physics dept at CU-D is an utter flaming shit-show currently, fwiw. Hard-pass. I don't know about the Math at Boulder, but I haven't heard much fair or negative about it. Not enough data to make any conclusions. AMC is alright, but it's post-undergrad/grad-school only, so anything you hear has that flavor added. Lots of med-y students though, few researchers in small labs (<3 grad students/PI). CU-CS? No idea, never talked to anyone that graduated there or is there now. Guess that means it's not super good or super bad then, again, not enough data.
- cristiancavalli 9y agoWow, that's a massive (and inaccurate) generalization. Not only have I worked with many CU grads that were passionate and intelligent but a couple of them did incredible work with NASA, Google and IBM in their undergrad/grad school work and were responsible for some very important equipment going into space. I myself am not a CU grad (go Lobos) but I have respect for some of the very talented people that CU has graduated.
