University of Southern Mississippi Top Questions

We are the Gulf South Regions best research instiution, and we have an amazing geography department.

It's large enough to have amazing professors, opportunities, and funding, but not so large that the class sizes are unbearable. As a marine biology major, it is very important to me that USM has an excellent marine biology program, in fact the top in Mississippi.

It is a smal campus that is easy to walk around and to get to classes easy. Our campus has one of the top rated Polymer Science programs, and is one of the only colleges in the state that offer national certification for students studying to be teachers. Our school has a lot of pride and spirit, and our football team has been to a few bowl games (football).

I brag to my friends about the school activities, whether it's about a parties, a fotball games, intramurals, or clubs. There are so many ways to get involved. I tell them about the different organizations that we have on campus and which ones I would like to join. I also tell them about the diversity. There are many different ethnic groups and people with different cultural backgrounds that attend my school. I tell them that I literally learn something new everyday.

It is the perfect size campus! Not too big, but not too small! You can walk to pretty much any building on campus in about 15 minutes.

Since I have gotten into my major program, I've had some of the most caring and helpful teachers I've ever had. I had one teacher in particular last semester that has helped me out more than anyone. She's even helped advise me on how to get into graduate school.

I mostly brag about the professors and how dedicated they are towards their students

I tell people about how stellar my friends are. I brag about how much talent is at Southern.

The education.

The school is not snobby.
