Amanda

As you get older students tend to study more. The library is usually crowded. I'm a communication major. Sometimes I go to talk to my teachers.

My educational experience at UNH was beyond my expectations I had when I came in as a freshman. I know my professors on a first name basis, and feel as if I have learned so much during my time here. Everyone complains about the general educations, but I enjoyed them - they were a nice break from the rigorous engineering classes I have had to endure.

ON my experience at UNH i got to know professors very well. Students are very active in class and all students get together and study for exams together. American Government is my favorite class this semester. Professor Dubnick is extremely fair and knowledgeable.

I love how I have the option to take small classes or large lectures. I am in an Italian class where there are 25 students and my professor knows my name. I am also in big lectures with 250 students. There are a wide range of ways to learn here.

Juliann

Most of my professors know my name. I feel that for the most part they have made the effort to learn my name, and in some classes it's because I made sure they knew my name. My favorite classes are my nutrition classes. My least favorite class was english. Many UNH students have intellectual conversations outside of class. Many students in my classes are competitive, and I feel this often makes me want to do better also. The most unique class I have taken so far is HMP 401. My major is Nutritional Sciences. I find that all the professors so far really care about us as their students and really want to make sure that we are learning the material. I feel that my education here at UNH is geared toward getting a job and it's really preparing me for the future.

Kristin

Most of my professors known my name from asking one on one questions. My favorite class is my french class because it is heavily focused on participation. I study about 3 hours or more each weekday and about 5 to 7 on weekends. Class participation is very common in smaller classes and counts for a good portion of your grade. I know that i am very competitive in all my classes trying to get the best grade I can, and compare my grades with my friends if I need to imporve in any area.

Lauren

Something I really appreciate as a student is when a professor remembers my name and thus far the majority of my professors are really good at doing that. It makes me want to participate more and more part of the class and like I am working hard and it is being noticed.

Jessica

One of my favorite classes im taking now is accounting, i like it so much because of my professor. He makes class interesting, and he makes a lot of jokes. He is also every enthusiastic about teaching us accounting. I find class partcipatioin isnt every common, in most of my classes it is the same 10 kids who always partcipate.

Erica

It really depends on what your major is. I am a nursing student so many of my classes are smaller and on a much more personal basis than some others. I talk about my major lots of times outside of the learning environment. The most unique class I have taken is death and dying. I really do not like the writing intensive requirements, I write enough in some of my classes that are not even considered writing intensive
