学生评论：
- The major that I am in for me is the best. I want to be a social worker and the sociology classes that I have taken are so interesting and helpful at giving students an insight into the career. There are teachers that give a heavy workload but it is worth it. Internships are available but they take up too much time and I have to work.
- Professors are nice and helpful at my school, but some can be very slow at replying to questions. Registration process is quick, and curriculum is based upon the teachers choice.
- As a music major, I am honored to be going to Central. It is the best music school in Washington state. It has nationally known and wanted professors. And some of the best players have studied at Central.
- Depending on the professor you get, the strictness of the classroom is changeable. All the teachers though are very knowledgeable and willing to help you out.
- The advisors for my major are well versed in the different specializations and are eager to help. Sometimes it feels like it is hard to get into the classes required for your major and it is hard to fit everything into your schedule. The facilities are very nice and there are a lot of research and job opportunities in my field.*(5)
