Describe your favorite campus traditions.

Kelsey

My school is known for being open to anyone and anything. We're all kind of hippies up in the mountains, and everyone is extremely friendly! I don't think anyone has ever felt left out of anything at App, because you really don't see too many "cliques" up here. Everyone knows everyone, and it's so calm up here.

Christina

Appalachian serves a variety of interests. Mostly buisness, accounting, and the art school is quite competitive. The buisness school was something that turned me off immediately. I was never interested. Art school seemed difficulty, scary and very competitive. The art students were always very serious and driven, making the endeavor seem more desirable to do, or at least be good at.

Our school is best known for our fantastic football team, great mountains for skiing, and excellent academics. I love the location of our university because it has some of the best places for sight seeing in the United States.
