ISU is a pretty decent university, since it has one of the top criminology programs in the country (which is why I decided to transfer here) and some other programs it has good marks in which I can't quite remember off the top of my head. It has only 11,000 students so it isn't a Division I school like, let's say, Indiana University or the University of Illinois-Urbana. Since it's a smaller-type university, it doesn't really have as much to do or as many clubs as the universities I mentioned above. However, I heard last week in one of my classes that they're working on getting a professional fraternity geared for crim majors back on track (it's been fairly defunct on campus recently) so I'm looking into doing something like that later on.
Terre Haute has three schools: ISU, Rose-Hulman (private engineering school), and Ivy Tech (community college). Some parts of Terre Haute are pretty decent, but then other areas of town are pretty depressed and shitty looking (like West Terre Haute and the area just north of campus). Overall, it isn't the worst looking town ever, but it doesn't hold a candle to Urbana, Bloomington, or any other major college town.
