I came here for the first time this past weekend to finally sign up for my library card. I'm…read moreimpressed, even surprised, by the quality of this library for it being in Lubbock. Also, this location was my only choice because it's the only branch open Sundays. The collection is entirely on the main floor. When you come in, fiction is mostly to the left and through the center, children's in the back left corner, non-fiction center back, and a huge section for genealogy research in the back right corner. In the front right side and corner is a computer area open to all visitors - it seems like a first come first served situation. There's also an armed police officer who seems to be always on duty here at a desk near the front. It's actually my first time seeing this in a library, and I come from a much larger city. Staff was helpful in getting me signed up. Probably the greatest benefit is in being able to join the Libby app for ebooks and audiobooks. But nothing will beat the brick and mortar library for things like graphic novels and a nice focused place to study.

Interesting past reviews here on the Texas Tech University page, but I can read between the lines…read moreand just hope others can too. But this college in the dusty Panhandle town of Lubbock, Texas, ain't so bad as the low rated reviews say. It is NOT a big city. Bigger than most towns within 340 miles or so, but it's still got that small town vibe. My daughters' doctor and many other really good doctors in this vicinity studied and/or graduated from TTU. I have taken family members to Texas Tech health care facilities all over Lubbock. The staff members' compassion and competence have meant the world to me. I didn't attend Tech for a reason. I had the chance, but I didn't want to go to the same damn school as everyone else from my high school. Lol. I also didn't see the point in spending the tons of money since I knew I wouldn't be getting a full scholarship. My uncle graduated from here, though, and played baseball. Wreck 'Em! I have been here for all kinds of events and most recently my two young daughters and I walked across the campus during the day and then later on the night of April 25, 2026. The campus was well-lit in most areas. My daughter who is in seventh grade is already expressing interest in this place to become a vet. She has a while to go, but they are already pushing the college degree plan in her school. We'll see... The Red Raider mascot is one of the most unique in the country. There are traditions here. Sound ones. Good ones. It's not an ivy league... lololol, Klara K. (review from 7.25.2017). Oh man, that was funny. College is meant for meaningful degrees for significant work. Tech delivers on that. The only set back I have about it is the parking. That's most colleges. I get it. But what a pain that I don't miss.

All her advisors have been rude, and react as though they are being bothered! This has been the biggest disappointment at Texas Tech! For the cost of tuition, they should screen for better advisors!

Lubbock Christian University is the campus where the funeral service of an extremely influential…read moreman was held on April 12, 2025. While my daughters and I remained primarily at the Church Of Christ Green Lawn, we noted how clean and well-maintained the campus was. Academically, LCU offers undergraduate and graduate degrees and has been ranked as a "top 20% best college in America." Their class sizes boast a 12:1 student to professor ratio. The Chapparels boast several men's and women's athletic teams: Baseball, basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, track & field, and volleyball. Additionally, they have cheerleading.
