University of Colorado Denver/Anschutz Medical Campus Top Questions

What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about your school?

Amber

I loved how non-traditional it was. It may not be incredibly renowned for its theatre department, but I learned far more about theatre in the real world than you will at most other institutions. I learned about how to get grant money, how to pull a project off out of thin air, perseverance, and about being a part of something so much larger than yourself. It's not just about who is the better performer, it's about who is a harder worker and will actually succeed where many others fail.

Alyssa

When I tell my friends about my school I boast most about a few things. I brag about how close the mountains are and how gorgeous the view of them is.

I talk about How great some of their programs are and the availability of classes.

Shelby

When I tell my friends about my school, I usually brag about the location and how commuting to and from all of the classes is so easy. Being downtown in the city limits and being able to walk anywhere that you need to get is great. Also being able to walk to classes that are all right there on campus is convenient. I love being able to leave one class and not have to be rushed to make it to my next class because it is just a few buildings away from my last class.

The success of the school and how difficult it can be at times. It really prepares you for the real world and graduate school as well.

Our great Ethnic Studies department!

When I brag to my friends about my school, I usually mention how great my professors are. I think they are very undervalued. A lot of students at my school aren't very academically-minded and complain about workloads or strictness, but the professors are top-notch! They are all very friendly, accessible, and helpful. I'm so glad that it's so easy for me to get in touch with my teachers.

Sonny

I tell them about what I acomplished in my department (Art). This year I won a compitition for a scene in a play. We built the props in a 3D animation program and it was displayed in a play in a planitarium. This had been the frist time that this has been done in the world. The props where scenes in this dome shaped room where it was projected through six seperate projectors. The scences had to be formated and spliced to fit this venue. The whole process was awsome and inovative.

Melissa

I brag about the opportunites given at my school. The Career Center provides a great deal of information about jobs and internships, and the Financial Aid office makes it easy to get any student the funding they need for a proper education.
