Describe your favorite campus traditions.
The University of Dallas is best known for its basis in the Liberal Arts and its Catholic heritage. It has a "Core" Curriculum which is widely admitted to be impressive and a good foundation for a liberal arts degree. Every student must fulfill the "Core" requirement, no matter which specific major they are studying. The "core" is most impressive because it links everything a student learns from the University of Dallas together and different parts of itcan be applied to their major and even to daily life.

Here's your chance: Say anything about your college!
The most unique aspect of the universities that I attended for undergraduate and graduate school was the class sizes. The smaller class sizes allowed for one-on-one attention from my professors, and created an environment that was lively and interactive. I was never just a number in the herd. I was an individual and I was able to make personal contributions and receive personal influence.

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?
BOBCATS!!!! and the general wildlife of Irving, Texas. The art department buildings are separated from the rest of the college and located in the woods surrounding the campus. As an art major, I walk through the wooded paths to class every morning. While in drawing class, a student staring our the window yelled, "There are cats out there!" The class subsequently ran over to the window only to have our professor exclaim that those were 3 baby bobcats climbing in the trees! Just the other day I was walking in those woods. Now I am constantly on alert for wildlife!
