The best thing about Arkansas is how everyone comes together for the sporting events. Razorback football is really intense and it is a whole day event. One thing I would change about the school is the location. I would put the school closer to Little Rock, because then there would be more things to do. University of Arkansas has a very well known reputation and people are impressed when I say I attend here. On campus I spend most of my time in the library studying. My current goal is to go to graduate or law school, and you need to top grades to get into those schools. The one thing I would change if I could is the food. I'm not personally big on southern food, but if you do like that kind of food this is the place to be. I like healthy food and I would have to say it's hard to find here.

The school is large, but it is very friendly and I spend most of my time on campus in the dorms or at the Union where there is always something going on. There have been mixed reactions when I tell people that I attend the U of A, but overall its very positive. There is a lot of school pride and everyone here bleeds Razorback Red! There are some unsual things about the campus such as the hidden underground tunnels I have been told exist and that the south tower on Old Main is shorter than the north tower due to its construction in the Civil War.

Perfect college town! There is always something to do and it is never boring. There is always people around. It is not too big and not to small. You will for sure know someone in every class and that is always nice. Fayetteville is so pretty and fun. There are great local restraunts and shops. It is somewhere in 30 years you can come back and say "Man that was the time of my life!"

I love our school. It's so awesome how we can have a smaller university that is much more tight knit than other schools, but we still have awesome sports teams and fans! The learning enviornment is much more personal because the classrooms are smaller. The only bad part about going to school here is when I tell people I go to school here. Most people have the "hillbilly" image of Arkansas in their minds and you can't convince them otherwise! It gets frustrating and the hog/pig jokes are getting old. I would say Fayetteville is mostly a college town. It's nice, but I wish there was a little bit more in the town.

I think that The University of Arkansas is a really great place to be. I came here because I felt something that i didn't feel at the other schools that I visited. It is a very inviting place and I think people don't understand that.

Brittany

At the U of A, I feel as if people are genuinely nice and care about what I have to say. I have made some great friends through the various college classes I have taken. I love how big the school is, but also feel like i dont get lost in the crowd too often. There is PLENTY of school pride. Just ask anyone on campus, or in Arkansas for that matter, how to call the Hogs. You will get the standard reply of Woooo PIG SOIEEE!

The best thing about Arkansas... the FOOTBALL GAMES! I LOVE our fight song. I think the school is a perfect size because you can have a great group of friends and still know only one person in a class. It has amazing Greek Life as well (TriDelta)! I spend a lot of time between classes at the Union, especially in the Coffee Shop! I have a different group of friends that I like to hang out there with that makes a nice break in my day. The only bad thing about Arkansas... the PARKING!! It's terrible. They're building new dorms where they need a parking garage! The 1000+ students that live around that area already have no where to park. It's miserable, avoiding tickets is impossible.

Sydney

Arkansas is a great campus on of the best things in my opinion is the southern charm that is so evident on campus. I believe the University of Arkansas is just the right size. Usually when I tell people I attend the University of Arkansas people react by saying "How bout those hogs!" or "That is a wonderful university!"

Brittany

The best thing about Arkansas is how pretty it is, especially in the fall. It is a beautiful campus. I would change the parking situation here. It is absolutely ridiculous...as if this school doesn't get enough money, they charge a ton for anything parking related. I think the size of Arkansas is just right. I spend most of my time at the business building on campus or in Kimpel doing homework.

I love Arkansas. It is a great college town with lots to do with friends. I also like the size of the school because it is small for a state school but has good athletic tradition.
