    Plymouth is a great environment to be in, the area it's self is gorgeous and there is nothing like seeing the mountains from your dorm window. The teachers and staff are all so friendly and helpful, being an incoming Freshman was very overwhelming but everyone is very nice and it is a very easy environment to adapt to, without a doubt there is a place for everyone to fit in. There is a huge number of clubs and organizations that are very easy to get involved in, along with a number of inter-mural sports that are so much fun and don't involve the commitment of playing a full time sport. There is also a ton of Greek life at Plymouth if that is something you are interested in and they are constantly reaching out to students, and rushes are a lot of fun even if you decide not to join.

    At first, I didn't like being here. I didn't think anyone here was friendly. One thing I definitely did not like was Thirsty Thursdays but as the semester rolls on I've become accustomed to everything on campus, I enjoy being here a lot more.

    Yes. Being a double option trying to graduate early, there is a pretty good workload, but if you're a single option on a 4-5 year program, it's not so bad. PSU is a nice atmosphere, fairly rural but has stores along a strip right next to campus, as well as a Wal-Mart just down the road. Usually it is quiet, but sometimes there are loud students from parties (but that happens on most/all college campuses).
