The University of Alabama at Birmingham attracts students from all types of backgrounds, ethnicities and career fields of interest. The great thing about it is the diversity in itself. The University is known for this fact and completely embraces it. For the state of Alabama UAB is one of, if not the best place to get a real-world college experience. Although it is not the most tightly-knit family, it is the place that sort of brings all types of people together to form a community of minds.

I think the thing that is most unique about our campus is it's in the center of our city. Birmingham is the largest city in Alabama and we are located downtown in the center of it all. There are so many things to do. There are places to shop, many places to eat great food, and places to go have a good time with friends.

The best thing about my school is the variety of experiences it gives each student. UAB is located in the center of many cities including Hoover, Five Points, Mountain Brook, Homewood, and Vestavia. But even in this large city, there are so many quiet places to relax at. There are many historic sites, parks, and attractions to visit. This University is also very diverse. So there are many different cultures to learn about. UAB also has a large selection of majors and schools to attend so there is something for everyone. UAB is the perfect college for anyone!

The best thing University of Alabama-Birmingham has to offer is its diversity. The diverse student body is what makes the campus comfortable for anybody regardless of their background. Every student on campus will find somebody with the same lifestyle as them as well as the opposite. The diverse setting makes it a learning environment outside the campus as well as inside. While you learn about academic studies in the classroom, the University of Alabama- Birmingham will require you to learn about other cultures and way of thinking which is something everyone appreciates and makes the campus unique.

Margaret

Th ebest thing about the University of Alabama at Birmingham is that it offers such a diverse learning environment. We have many students and professors from other countries, and offer many study away programs. I enjoy meeting these people and learning about what the rest of the world has to offer. We have the highest number of exchange students in all of Alabama, and it has offered a first hand look at what life is like in countries that we have never visited. I commend UAB for offering great programs so others will come here to pursue an education.

The best thing about my school is the Campus Recreation Center because it gives the students a chane to escape from work. It's where all the students get to interact, have fun, and mingle.
