Maybe you’ve been getting emails from us, maybe you’ve browsed through our virtual campus tour, maybe your parents won’t stop talking about what Colorado State was like back in their day. If you’re still looking for ways to really get to know what the culture and student experience is like at CSU, or if there are certain organizations or groups on campus that you want to know more about, some of these social media accounts might be perfect for perusing.

#1. CAM the Ram

You know his face, you can’t help but smile when you see him, and you can’t wait for a chance to pet him on campus one day. To keep up with one of the most beloved members of the CSU community, be sure to give CAM the Ram a follow on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

#2. Housing and Dining

Not only does CSU Halls host a YouTube playlist of residence hall tours and share tons of mouth-watering food photos from dining centers, they also share information about important dates, unique events like Pet Night and Environmental Eats, and opportunities for involvement. You can find them on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube.

#3. Key Communities

Wondering how you’ll get plugged in to campus when you get here? Key Communities are learning communities that you share a residence hall floor with, take your first 2-3 semesters of classes with, experience leadership development and career opportunities with, and lots more. They share about events and opportunities to engage on Facebook, and they just started a new Instagram account.

#4. Associated Students of CSU
