It is at a good price, has many majors to try out, and you can make many new friends.

I brag about the new Davies Center (the student center) that will be done in the fall of 2012! It's huge, beautiful, and has great things in it like a multi-story fireplace, comfy chairs, Starbucks, all day breakfast, Taco Bell...the list goes on and on. Everyone is psyched to finally be inside it. There will be more green space on campus, more outside seating, picnic tables and a patio once they build the new Davies Center and everything will be fresh and new. I'm very excited, the new student center is definately something to brag about!

The biology and music programs at the school are incredibly competitive and well-known. The forensics team is nationally-ranked.

UW-Eau Claire is a gorgeous campus. Eau Claire in itself is a beautiful place to live. There's so much to do, if you can get away from your studies, you won't be bored. There are hundreds of opportunities to participate in activities and enhance your resume on campus as well. There's everything from National Student Exchange, Student/Faculty Research to Blood Drives, numerous volunteer opportunities, several church groups, to Triathalon Club, and even Student Ministry of Magic. I can do anything here, and I'm excited to try so many new things.

Housing is very close to campus; It is only a 10 minute walk for me. All the buildings are very close and easy to find.

UW-Eau Claire provides a "homey" atmosphere on campus. I enjoy the friendly people, beautiful surrounding environment and small town feel. Though the campus feels small, it has all of the opprotunites, experiences and convieniences that are offered at larger universities.

Whenever my friends and I discuss our respective schools, I love to tell them about the fun events that are constantly going on. There is a dance club on campus called Higherground, and its always a fun venue. Every weekend, the UAC plays films in the student union. These films range from new releases to foreign to indies. Not only is there so much to do on campus, the surrounding city of Eau Claire is easily accessible through the free transit. The coffee shops and cafes are perfect for studying!

First, the unique relationships that I was able to develop with my professors have been extremely valuable and insightful to me professionally and personally. They motivated me to become interested in research, and several of them worked on various projects with me. I have kept in contact with many of my professors in my career, and many of them have pushed me into continuing my education. On a side note, the Homecoming celebrations on campus in the fall are also a bragging point. School spirit is completely evident and embraced by the community.

How friendly the professors are and how much they care about you achieving your best and how pretty the campus is.
