    CSUF Housing and Residential Engagement - The Dorms

    These dorms are fairly new (~3 years old). There are 4 floors? 5 floors? I don't remember... I went…read morewith my boyfriend to visit his younger sister here. From the outside, the dorms look really abstract due to the different placings of the windows. When you see the dorms, you'll know what I'm talking about. You need to swipe your card to get in, you need to swipe your card & punch in a number to go into your room, and you need to swipe your card & punch in a number to go to the bathroom. And thank the lawd for elevators. It would totally suck if there were no elevators in these dorms. I wish I was able to dorm when I was a freshman.. *sigh*

    As much as I'd want to rate the dorms higher because of my awesome memories there, I can't. The…read moreyear I spent living on campus was a blast - it's convenient, you can explore campus at night, there are study rooms open all the time. We made some awesome friendships, even with the ducks and raccoons that roamed the grounds. The actual dorms themselves weren't terrible, but compared to every other on campus housing I've visited they dwindle in comparison. (We did have balconies in the doubles though, which was sweet). But most of all, there were so many random issues that came up that just kind of ... sucked. This is for the 2012-2013 school year, so hopefully things have improved. One of the biggest issues I had was with the way the keys worked. If you somehow got locked out the temporary key could only be borrowed for an hour - meaning you pick it up, use it to get back in the room, and have to go drop it back off in the office. This was fine if you locked your key in the room, but not fine if you actually lost it. Because the keys were encoded on our id cards, and the library would only give new id cards on the weekdays, if you lost your id card after 5 pm on Friday you couldn't get a new encoded one until Monday morning. You'd either have to be an annoying roommate constantly asking to get back in or lock yourself in your room all weekend. The first semester one of the apartments had this "minor" issue where anything that went down the garbage disposal from the floors above it would come UP their sink. Yes, exactly ... what. The food we put down the sink on the 4th, 3rd, and 2nd floors came up and out of the sink on the 1st floor. One day they came back to an apartment flooded with the food remains and water from the upper floors, which needless to say smelt absolutely disgusting. The three upper apartments couldn't use the garbage disposal for a few days, everyone from the bottom one just avoided the living room. It got fixed, but that isn't something that should need to be fixed in the first place. When we came back for second semester we were greeted with broken water heaters, which meant no warm showers even in January. Our entire building had cold water apparently because of some part that needed to be ordered and would take a bit to ship. They did leave kind little notes on our doors saying we could use freshman dorm showers in other buildings if we wanted too. Also, they did give us all free movie tickets for the troubles. How sweet, we can have a smelly group outing to the cinema! It ended up fixed a week or so later, but again ... seriously? On a more positive note, the groundskeeper who maintains all the plants is super cheery and always made my day! Always greeted good morning with a smile on his face. Even if he was just doing weeds he would make some comment like "weeds are just flowers that grow in the wrong places", his positivity was a nice way to start any day.

    Little do people realize that Cal State Fullerton has quite an extensive collection of carnivorous…read moreplants. I discovered this during my first or second semester when the LA Weekly ran a story on a club of remarkable individuals who grew the meat-eating vegetation as a hobby. Listed among the members was Ed Read, who ran the greenhouses near CSUF's McCarthy Hall. A year or so later, I took a tour of the greenhouses with Mr. Read himself. He was so very helpful while also laid-back. The man really knows his plants, and since this is something he also does when not on the clock he really loves to talk about them. If you go to take pictures, he'll walk around with you, tell you about each plant, and write the name of it on a piece of paper and hold it in front of the plant for you so you'll be able to identify it later. CSUF also has several specimens of titan arum (a.k.a. corpse flowers), the plant that smells like rotting meat when it blooms (which is considered a big deal when it does blossom: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_publicised_titan_arum_blooms_in_cultivation). The greenhouses just tend to go unnoticed by the general student population, and they're quite a gem. Ed cultivates all sorts of carnivorous plants, some of them rare in the States like Albany Pitcher Plants from Perth, Australia. It's completely free to walk around the greenhouses, but it would be best to call Ed ahead of time so he knows who you are and what you're doing.

    What a hidden gem on the campus of Cal State University Fullerton!…read more While most plant-lovers might head straight on over to the Fullerton Arboretum, the Biology Greenhouse Complex holds many rare and tropical treasures that are not to be missed! The carnivorous plant collection alone is worth the trip. Tours can be scheduled in advance with the greenhouse manager who is knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Open to students M-F 8am-4:30pm

    Biology Greenhouse Complex - Visited about 3 years ago and was given a hoya cutting.  I brought it home to WA state, and this is the first time it's bloomed.  Thanks!
