I think the best part of the social scene on campus is that there are a vairety of activities that you can do. There are so many ways to get socially involved on campus. Everything isn't for everyone, so many clubs put on things so you can get socially involved, you can go to a greek sponsored party, or go to a show put on by the Theatre department, if you like sports you can get socially involved by cheering on the Bears or Sugar Bears. It just depends on what you want to do. I am not really sure what the worst parts of the social scene are. It really just depends on you, you have to be willing to go out and go to these events. Most events are advertised or you may hear about them from friends. If you are shy it might be hard to start getting involved. Just meet a few people at a time and soon you will be way socially involved!

This Campus is truly beautiful. There are so many people on campus to take care of the buildings, plants, holiday decoration, and much more. When i first got here all the plants were so alive and the tall brick buildings are well kept and have large columns. We have a fountain that provides a nice place to study and a key role in Christmas decorations. During the holiday season it is lit with purple and white Christmas lights. The landscaping is beautiful with many types of flowers, grasses, and trees. When walking through campus it almost feels like your at a park. There is always wildlife on campus, I probably see at least one squirrel everyday, and some days i see many. This campus is well established and I love that even though it's in a large urban area it still has a rural feel to it!

Overall I am very pleased with UCA. It is a great campus, great professors, and a great place to meet new people. Though with our economy the prices are going up for tuition, it's still worth the try to get in. Go Bears!

Teachers make it a point to get to know their students which is a great thing about UCA. Teachers are always roaming about and eager to talk to students about any topic on their mind. Classes are reasonable. When you get to classes like Chemistry, Biology, Psychology, and other in the same fields they will be big classes ranging from 50 to 100 students. Other than that most classes are kept at 40 tops. My major is Computer Science. This is one of the top fields at UCA. It is growing larger each year. We have received three new professors in my three years at this school. They are all very smart and are ready to teach. The classes are usually set up in a way that your pre requisites are in the morning and when you reach your upper level courses they are scheduled in the afternoon times. This doesn't effect me at all, but it is nice to know this to help you when registering. My department is very geared at getting you educated and getting a job. When you near your senior year it is time for interviews. UCA Computer Science department is associated with company's such as Axiom and Alltel. They are ready to get you educated and into an internship.

The best thing about UCA is the campus. It is steady growing. We have recently updated our student center and added a Health building, which is more or less an on campus Hospital with an on call doctor 24/7. UCA is the second biggest college in the state of Arkansas, the biggest being the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, AR. Conway is definitely a college town. Other than UCA there is Hendrix University and Central Baptist College, or CBC. School pride is huge. We are the UCA Bears and we are proud of it. So far this has been a great football season for us. The two biggest incidents that have happened at UCA is we have recently lost our President and there was a shooting at UCA. Our president just resigned from UCA. I do not know the full details but of course it consisted of money. We recently had a shooting on campus. Three people where shot, 2 died that were students and 1 wounded who was not a UCA student. This was a very scary night but we have pulled through it.

Overall I am very pleased with UCA. It is a great campus, great professors, and a great place to meet new people. Though with our economy the prices are going up for tuition, it's still worth the try to get in. Go Bears!

To a point. It is a bit of a party school, but it's not to bad. Things are kept very organized.

The student body is very very large. We are getting close to being the most populated school in Arkansas. There are many races at my school which is amazing. I enjoy getting to talk with other people from different cultures and backgrounds. Clothing is very open at UCA. You will see many students wearing pajamas to morning classes. Our gym is very popular. Many students will wear their work out clothes all day to hit the gym whenever they have free time. There are many students who come from rich families as well as many who come from poor. Politically, this school has amazed me. During our last election there was a huge uproar over the McCain vs Obama debate. I thought this was amazing and in a way, it helped us connect with one another.

Fraternities and Sororities are very popular at UCA. I am not a member of a Fraternity but I have many friends who are. Most parties are held by these groups. Dorm life is a good thing to experience. This is how I met most of my newest friends. My door was always open and anyone was welcome. Residential dorm life is a big thing at UCA. Imagine waking up and your first class was right in your dorm hall down stairs! That was a very fun thing to do. This helped students be more open and also the classes were smaller and one one one interaction with your professor was easier. Intramural sports is also another popular activity. Anything from softball, basketball to bowling were played. Of course, everyone was joining Facebook and interacting through that!
