Mizzou is a great school where you can experience so many opportunities. University of Missouri had an exciting football season, which was my favorite part of first semester. Waking up on game day made everyone ecstatic. From looking outside the window and seeing a wave of people walking towards the stadium to walking pass greek town and witnessing the students having a blast out in a lawn playing washers and socializing. Since Mizzou's football team went to the SEC championship game the past two seasons, our student section was hyped up for every game.

I think the best thing about my school is all the opportunities we have. There are hundreds of classes to choose from so your options are endless. Also there are over 700 clubs to join and there is always something going on, no matter what day it is. Because it is such a large campus, the opportunities are neverending, which means that you are never bored and you can really get involved in the school. Also, by getting involved in the school, you really build up school spirit, which is awesome to have at a college campus.

Mizzou gave me the best of both worlds. Going in I thought "It's too big," but after becoming an honors student and part of a FIG, I can already see the smaller communities of people within the entire ecosystem. I got the big time college feel, with the sports and reputability, but also small classes and the personal attention that makes me feel like more than just a number.

The best thing about Mizzou is the sheer number of resources available, like awesome Ellis Library and the new state-of-the-art Rec Center; not to mention living resources like the huge faculty and a diverse group of peers. Everyone is so helpful, whether they're pointing you towards the correct building or boosting your essay writing skills. I love being surrounded by smart people with intelligent pursuits, and they're in no short supply at Mizzou.

Alexis

The best thing about the University of Missouri is the instant connections I see people make all around me. Whether it be sparked from ungodly amounts of school spirit, their love for our dining hall's toasted raviolis, or attending weekly shows of Comedy Wars; there is something that runs through every students' blood at Mizzou that creates a connection through every one of us.

Jessica

The best thing about my school is that professors and students are acutally willing to help you. In high school my teachers always said that the professors don't really care about you, but at my college that is not true,

David

The best thing about MU is the school pride, you can feel the spirit of the students, faculty and alumni throughout the state.

Genevieve

The best thing about the University of Missouri is the rec facility. It has given me a place to continue take care of my body. Going to workout is no longer a chore and I enjoy every moment I spend there. Whether I am running on my own or going to a class they offer I will always leave feeling great about myself. It gives the students a place to care for themselves as well as providing a productive break from studying.

Kris

The best thing about my school is that there is something for everyone there. It doesnt matter what you are interested in, what your hobbies are, or what crazy thing you like to do. There is some group there that is for you. No one will be alone if they dont want to be. With being only a freshman this past year, it helped so much to be able to find a few groups and organizations that i would attend and enjoy going to to get away from the stress of school.
