Erika

When I tell my friends about my school I brag about how hard the classes are. When my friends mention how easy their classes are at their community college or other universities I frown. I tell them that I love UTEP so much because instead of gliding through it to get my diploma I am actually learning the material I will be needing in the future for my career. I do not want the easy way out, I love to brag that my school challenges me and because it does I will be a better employee in the future.

I love my schools gym! Its an open air gym, 4 floors of machines, an indoor basketball court, an indoor swimming pool, a track, and it even has a rock climbing wall. The students are not judgemental they are very nice they dont judge you and you dont get bullied around. They offer free fitness classes like kickboxing, weight lifting, and zumba. If you are a person who likes to exercise, UTEP is the place for you!

Melissa

I don't really brag about anything. I do like to give random little facts like "Did you know that the Fox Fine Arts building is modeled almost exactly like the one in UT Austin?" I also tell people that, contrary to popular belief, UTEP is actually a pretty good school. Some of the best teachers I've had are the ones that I've had during my years at UTEP.

Abiodun

I tell them about they flexible curriculum, the large auditorium and buildings in the school.

Lindsey

This school has a very close-knit community because the majority of students who attend here, grrew up in this city. It is hard to walk very far on campus without running into someone that you know. There is a lot of pride for this school throughout the whole city, not just the school community, which I think is neat and unique.

John

Since I live here, my friends know all about UTEP. However, what I would tell someone who wasn't from here is that UTEP has a high hispanic enrollement population. I'm from a border town and I enjoy the fact that in the United States, you can go to different parts of the country and experience a wide variety of cultures which is what makes this country great. UTEP, like the U.S., has a wide variety of ethnicities and that makes for very interesting conversations. I would recommend to anyone who likes hot weather to attend UTEP.

Jessica

What I brag most about University of Texas at El Paso would be the few teachers that I have encountered so far as great teachers of their disipline.

I would also brag as to how utep is continuing to grow and change to help make the school better for incoming students and current students.
