Describe how your school looks to someone who's never seen it.
The University of Arkansas at Little Rock is very convienant for working students, parents, and those who are going back to college after a sufficient amount of time. During my undergraduate years Dr. Karen Kuralt was a great mentor advisor and professor. I would highly recommend UALR for anyone in the Little Rock or surrounding areas. The Faculty and Staff are always willing to lend a helping hand and I appreciate that so greatly.

What is the stereotype of students at your school? Is this stereotype accurate?
The biggest stereotype accompanies UALR is that most of us are over the age of 25, married, and have children. Our school is viewed as having only a few traditional students that attend. That is NOT true. At UALR, there is a big diversity between race and age groups. In fact as a freshman that transferred straight from high school to college, I have seen an overwhelming amount of students that are in my age group 18-20. In all my classes, there have been maybe 2 people over 25 and non over 60. Even though our institution supports the continuing education of non-traditional students by the Adult Student Advocacy, we are composed of mostly students coming straight out of high school seeking to further their education.

Tell us about your professors.
Most of my professors have been a great influence to my life. They teach you the importance of the subject of what ever you are majoring in. Now I only had a few professors I had trouble with such as the class not being organized, the expectations are high, and I had to make an appeal in those classes. Overall, the professors are great. You just have to work really hard and create a network with them.

Why did you decide to go to this school?
I decided to go to this school, because it was closer to the center of business, politics, culture, and education for my state. It offered an opportunity to be around professional who work in the fields that they instruct rather than teaching the hypothetical. The professors are constantly looking at opportunities and advancing their careers, so they are more in tune with the state of economic opportunities offered both locally and abroad, so you can expect a realistic view of the job market upon graduation.
