When I talk about college I simply can't help but brag about the feeling I get when I am drawing in my art classes. The professors there are always so helpful and I could not ask for better. I have learned how to expand my artistic abilities to levels I never thought I was even capable of. At MTSU I have broadened so many of my horizons that I actually enjoy attending my classes for a change. In highschool I dreaded sitting there learning over and over what I already knew, but here I am always learning something new.

What I brag most about to my friends about MTSU is how much it has grown over the years. When I was younger I really didn't know and had never heard of MTSU and I lived not even ten minutes away from it my whole life.

It is now the biggest school in Tennessee, and I am very proud to get to be apart of a school that has come such a long way.

Janani

You can do anything at MTSU. It has something for everyone and you never run out of options.

Jennifer

My experience at MTSU has been mostly in the English department. However, I found the English department has a very efficient staff. They seem to genuinely care for their students, and want them to do well. The professors are always very prompt when responding to emails, and are almost always willing to proof-read assignments for you, as well as recommend the Writing Lab. I had few negative reactions with the English staff, and I am quite fond of most of them. I am returning for my Masters and I am still very exciting about studying under them.

Brandon

I don't really brag about my school to my friends, but if I did I would have to brag about the campus itself. They have everything you need on MTSU's campus. A theatre, a really good medical center in the recreational facility, as well as a ridiculous amount of resturaunts.

This school is very organized and cares about their students.

I tell my friends that MTSU is a good public university that has a widely diverse population of student, and widely diverse academics. It is well-known for its aerospace, recording industry and journalism programs. It has a great agriculture progam as well. MTSU has a state of the art fitness/rec center. They are currently building a new building for the College of Business and a new student union. MTSU has a really good social atmoshere. I would choose MTSU all over again if I had to.

I love the school spirit at MTSU! Football season definitely means a great time tailgating and other festitivities. The professors are wonderful and experienced in their fields, and work with the students so they get the best education possible. MTSU is more like a small community, with a spirit of unity among the students and faculty. Although MTSU was not my first choice, I know now that I'm at one of the best schools in Tennessee...and that deserves bragging rights!

Kyle

Parking, athletic events, concerts, and other social events are all free. The school does an excellent job in catering to students and their needs and requests. Most professors are easily accessible outside of class and encourage their students to succeed. Even though the school is over 25,000 strong, attending class here does not feel like a university of that size.

Taylor

I brag about the caliber of my academic department, psychology.

MTSU is big enough to offer many majors and has a diverse group of students that make great contacts in the future. They also are constatnly imprivoing the campus and the city that the campus is located is also growing. It is a great place to be in college. It is big enough to give you freedom, but small enough to keep you focused.

The strong history of the school and the huge selection of clubs, classes, and dining that gives everybody something that suits them.

Rick Stockstill is a great coach and has turned the football program to the 37 ranked team in the nation in such a short time. Not only the football team winning games, but the amount of graduates that come back to the game. The attendence at the games are huge, and its a great enviornment.

Abbey

There isn't just a whole lot that I brag about, simply because I'm not that kind of person. Our stats kind of speak for themselves: Our science, business, aerospace, recording industry, music and theatre departments are outstanding. There's lots of cultural diversity at MTSU. We have recently topped UT Knoxville in the number of enrolled students. We have a pretty clean campus. Graduation rates are high. All these factors were reasons why I chose to attend MTSU.

Lindsay

Even though my school wasn't my #1 choice, I did choose it for specific reasons. I attended a major university to start with, then a community college, then when I finally figured out what I wanted to major in, I chose MTSU because it had the best program in the state for my major and offered the most financial aid.

Christabel

The nice facilities and good classes that I've been able to take.

This school does not offer anything that deserves bragging rights. The only thing I could think of that might deserve bragging rights is the amount of parties thrown and the amount of alcohol consumed.

Brianna

Campus is large so you get plenty of exercise! Plus there are a ton of places to sit outside and study by yourself or with friends. At MTSU we get to drink milk from cows used in the agricultural program - MTSU milk! The library is huge! There is always some activity or other going on around campus, especially a lot of performing arts - theatre/musicals/dance/opera/choir/band. Activities are inexpensive, so it is easy to have a fun night out with friends or a date!

Everyday I walk outside to music and laughter; then go to class to hard but interesting work and I love it!

Christen

Most of my friends attend the same school so they get the same wonderful experience as I do.

Thomas

That my program ,Aerospace, is rated high in the top five in the country.

Sara

How close I am with my professors. They feel more like friends there to help me get through school then authority figures. They are always willing help outside of class, and give you a friendly push until you get things right. I feel like they are people I will know for a long time and they will help me with my career in the future.
