The best thing about my campus is how diverse it is. You really get to interact act with alot of individuals who come from different back grounds, and cultures. I found this the most rewarding of my college experience, because not only do I meet wonderful people, but later on in my life I will be able to understand them if i ever do business with them.

The rich traditions and unique history of its strong connection with the Kingdom of Bhutan, that is most evident by the beautiful Bhutanese architecture of the campus buildings. This history shows that the university, made up predominantly of Hispanic students, has embraced a whole different culture from a country on the opposite side of the globe. It's pretty fascinating!

My school is a great place to study. There is an amazing amount of racial and cultural diversity, and discrimination of any sort amongst students and teachers is extremely rare. There are many workshops and places you can go to for help with your classes or your homework, and good grades and performance are recognized and rewarded. The best thing about it is the fact that the university, its students, and its staff are always trying to help you. Everybody works together, no matter the differences among us.

I think the best characteristic of my school is the bilingual environment you get to observe. It is the El Paso/Juarez region that allows you to see the best of both cultures and to acknowledge the importance of knowing more than one language.

I enjoy the cultural diversity, all the different activities, and clubs that are offered at UTEP. There's an International Food Fair that is offered once a semester where they sell food from different countries and a lot of the dishes from other countries are delicious and promote diversity. Also, different bands play once a week during lunch time at the union, so anyone wanting to get exposure can book a week to play there. There are also several club opportunites in many areas that offer community service chances and networking advantages.

The best thing about the school is how receiving a college education is easier than believed. The university helps incoming students adjust to the college life by slowly introducing the student to the basics. After the first year, the student is well adjusted and more comfortable with the university, and is more likely to finish their degree plan.

The Universty of Texas at El Paso is ranked as one of the top schools in the nation, that is on the verge of becoming a tier one University, adding to the school's prestige and traditional southwestern values. The reason I feel this way is that I am a native El Pasoan. I have seen the university grow throughout the years and I am proud to have been accepted into this lifelong scholastic icon, enabling me to become a part of this highly innovative and fully accredited university. Prestige comes to those who are able to call themselves "Miners".

There are many things I love about my school, the environment, the students, the classes, but overall it’s the fact that it is affordable and I get a great well-earned education. My professors are organized, engaging and friendly. The workload can be a bit too much at some points but overall I feel like every dollar that I spend on this university is well worth it.
