The University of Kentucky is a great school that has many different programs. Therefore, it is a school that will fit many types of students. However, one type of student that may not enjoy attending UK is one that wants to go to school in a “small” environment.

If a student did not put forth an effort to become involved, it would be easy for them to feel lost in a sea of people.

The extreme "loner" should not attend this school. Don't get me wrong, I deffinitelly enjoy my alone time but so much of campus life is spent with large groups of people and you meet so many new people everday that you would feel uncomfortable in the social environment.

There are organizations for minorities so that they don't feel out of place. If your not into the school spirit nobody will kick you out. The only type of person that shouldn't attend would be someone with no dedication and is just going to mope around and bring other students down with them. I haven't seen anybody like that on campus though, and it is always a great place to be.

The school is big and diverse enough that anyone interested can fit in; I don't think anyone shouldn't.
