The best thing about Iowa State University is the campus. Iowa State is known for having it's campus separate from the city of Ames, which hleps students like me be able to walk to class. I enjoy the outdoors, so for me being able to walk or ride my bike is a major plus when it came to picking a college. I also love how "green" Iowa State's Campus is. We have recycling for every floor in the dorms and have one of the top water supplies in the US.

The workshops provide help for different life obstacles like finding financial aid, writing resumes, and pressures of the world today. The clubs expose students to culture and other experiences.

The more students participate, the more apt they are to being successful in their future careers.

In every classroom there is someone representing a difference culture with a new perspective about the ideas and skills we are learning for our careers. Being able to talk to people from different backgrounds and cultures, and subsequently learn about their culture, is something that I only dreamed about doing. By actually talking and doing activities with these people, I've learned just how "big" the world really is, and that we, as a society, have only just begun a truly global society.
