Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

ISU is what someone might call one of a kind. It has the city setting without actually being in a huge city. It is an institution with diverse programs,qualified professors, and a field of interest for any student. And although it is an Idaho university with an Idaho environment, out-of-state and international students are welcome and included. There is a club or student organization for everybody, and if that isn’t your cup of tea, there is always the great Idaho outdoors to enjoy. ISU has a wonderful hometown feel with multiple opportunities available. The student experience at ISU, and probably any college or university, really comes down to what the student wants out of it. Pocatello can be viewed as an amazingly boring town, or it can be a fun, chill place to just lay back and enjoy life. That is definitely the word for Pocatello and ISU life in general—chill. For the most part, students and professors are laid-back and easy-going. The ISU experience is what students make of it, but most likely that experience will be one of great memories and good times in good ol’ Idaho.

Journalism Is Great

I visited Idaho State last year when I was competing in the HSJA State conference. The Macs are great and ISU has an amazing Mass Comm Department.

Things are close, not great though. There's not a lot of discounts for students.

College Prowler guides are in the hands of students throughout the entire process. Because you can't make student-written guides without the students, we have students at each campus who write, edit, and survey their peers for every guide that we publish.
