    1. friendly students.
    2. clean campus.
    3. green campus.
    Tips for prospective students

    1. research who your professors are.
    2. subway has $5.00 sub sandwiches.
    3. ccc/uw-b library has quiet study spaces, and you can even eat in the library!
    Academic Rigor

    there are some teachers who do not believe in ever giving a 4.0 to a student, so make sure you do your research. i was told that for every one hour of class time you will need to study at least two hours on your own.
    Dorm Life

    none as of right now, as this is a commuter campus and and a 2-year community college.
    Food and Dining

    1. subway has sandwiches and salads.
    2. uw-b bookstore has food for thought cafe where the prices are very expensive, but the food is healthier.
    3. ccc has stop watch espresso, whre there is a multitude of food choices and the prices are more reasonable.
    4. uw-b has the commons, where sometimes they have $3.00 meal deals, otherwise the prices are more expensive.
    5. there are vending machines throught ccc where you can purchase snacks of all kinds, and even use your debit card or cash.

    What to do for fun

    1. join clubs and attend club events.
    2. there are often free movie nights in mobius hall.
    3. i went to a poetry reading in mobius, so there are other events held there besides movies.
    4. a few dances per year are held on campus.
    5. rock climbing through the outdoor adventure club, off campus.
    Bang for the buck

    the class sizes are smaller than a 4-year university for freshmen and sophomores. smaller campus so one does not get lost, or feel overwhelmed with too many buildings to navigate.

    off campus:
    there is (within walking distance) the lyon's den cafe, where a ccc student can obtain a 10% discount on drinks.
    alexa's cafe in down town bothell where a ccc student can get 10% off a meal.
    plus there are other discounts available if one uses their ccc student i.d. card.

    if you purchase anything school related at the uw-b bookstore then you will get 10% back from what you spend as a credit at the end of the school year. you do have to register each new school year to obtain this credit.
    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    there is a wetland near the campus, with wonderful walking trails. there is a very large grassy knoll between the buildings that one can lay out on in-between class time and catch some sun.
    Great for these types of students

    students who like a smaller campus and smaller class sizes.

    Cascadia Staff are very friendly and helpful. The facilities and teaching aid technology are up to date, and the Buildings are built o be pleasing to the eyes. Very good college
    Tips for prospective students

    Keep a warm jacket or sweater on you, the campus gets very cold during the night, or even the day!
    Academic Rigor

    Challenging, but not so difficult that you have to study every minute for the latest in a long line of brain-breaking tests
    What to do for fun

    There are events happening all the time. I participated in a game of Ultimate Frisbee, and helped set up a bouncy castle for a fair in the same week. There are movies showing every month.

    cascadia is very conscience about the environment and all about saving and recycling resources. the buildings are large and open with lots of windows. teachers really care about your education and really go the extra mile to help you.
    Tips for prospective students

    tips i would give to students that plan on attending cascadia are to pay your parking fees, and turn in your books and/or dvd's on time! overdue books or dvd's are charged 50 cents for everyday when not returned on time. not paying your parking fees results in a 20 dollar fine. you also need to be careful not to park on the white lines. be sure your car is straight or that will result in an even larger fine of 25 dollars.
    Dorm Life

    there are no on campus dorms.
    Food and Dining

    there's a small cafe, some chairs to lounge in and a subway!
    What to do for fun

    there is a piano on the second level of the cc2 building, and most of the time there is someone playing on it. i enjoy listening to it to pass the time until my next class starts.
    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    there's a spot on the campus that have wooden statues standing in a circle near the woods. there is also an area that has 1's and 0's engraved into the ground in a couple of broken up circles. it is supposed to be a code, and the purpose for it, is for someone to decode it. so far no one has been able to figure it out, as far as i know.
    Great for these types of students

    if you're interested in a tech job or are interested in getting a transfer degree then this is the college for you.
    Clubs and Activities

    there are tons of clubs and activities you can attend, such as it club, game design club, dancing, speaker series, misc. activities. there's no way you wouldn't know about an existing club they are posted every where through out the campus.
    Campus Safety

    the campus has good security that patrols the grounds often. the campus also has emergency phones on each level in case of an emergency.
