I brag about the the Neuroscience program! There is so much information that has come out of the biobehavioral labs in the Psychology department at this university! In fact, it was here that many important aspect about brain structures such as the amygdala and bed nucleus of the stria terminalis were discovered.

As far as talking to my friends about my school, I probably brag about the location the most. It is absolutely beautiful with the lake and the mountains right there. Burlington itself is a great college town. Big enough so there is a lot to do and you can get everything you need but small enough not to feel overwhelming or dangerous. I always felt safe there. The natural beauty and easy access to the great outdoors is worth bragging about!
