Sally

The best thing about West Virginia Univeristy is the exceptional school pride and loyalty palpable around campus. The saying, "Once a mountaineer, always a mountaineer," rings true for students and alumni alike and WVU is the picute of pride, tradition, and support from fellow mountaineers. Pride is the best thing about my shool because when you're on campus you feel a sense that you belong to something great and bigger than anyone can imagine.

The best thing about my school is the diversity. I grew up in a place where there was no major difference between anyone. At my college, I learned so much more about different religions, opinions, and situations that people believe in or grew up around. I believe that this has really made me a better person because I am more open to hear the opinions of others and to try and understand where they are coming from in different situations.

Sara

The best thing about WVU, is the student body. Our students are extremely friendly and helpful. You can ask any random person on the street for directions and they will help you and make sure you get to where you need to go. They also have more school spirit than any school I have ever seen.

Melinda

The best thing about my school would have to be the people. There is always someone there to help you if you need it or if you need to know where a room or place is there is always someone that you can call or ask on the sidewalk and they don't hesitate to give you some guidence.

WVU is a really big school which is kind of nice if you are looking forward to meeting a lot of people. The courses are usually very well organized, and the teachers are generally pretty nice. Most teachers are very responsive to e-mail and have office hours in which they can help you one on one.

Kendra

I think the best thing about my school is the close-knit community we have. First of all, there is an amazing support group across campus that is willing and ready to listen to students. This group contains students as well as faculty, professors, and staff members. Secondly, we are all like-minded. We are at school to learn and have fun also. If you have a group of like-minded people, things will go well. Finally, we have one common bond, and that is Jesus Christ. We are able to encourage each other in the good and bad times.
