Anyone got info on Humboldt State University?
I might apply there since I heard it’s pretty easy to get into but i wanted to ask some questions from people who know the area of the school or former students. Well I’m African-American so are there a lot of other minorities there or would i be the only one? Also I wanted to know what is the weather like in Humboldt? Are the people generally nice? Will I probably have any problems since I’m black (I heard rumors the area is racist) Also what type of activities are in the area?

Great place for forestry majors.
The website should tell you its racial make-up. Humboldt is pretty far north. Think Oregon, but more fog and rain.
The Chamber of commerce web site will give you a list of activities. If you like to hunt elk and fly fish, you’ll fit right in. Don’t expect hip-hop concerts or raves.
