University of Minnesota-Duluth Top Questions

I think the best thing about my school is the variety of options provided. Theyre are a ton of majors and minors to choose from so a person can change there mind a million times and still stay at the school they've grown to love.

I love the diversity of talent in the school. The school is also so bright, well-lit, and inviting.

The size is the best thing about the school. It is not too big or small. It's the perfect size where you recognize many people in your classes but there are always new people to meet too.

All of the buildings and dorms are connected with tunnels so even though it's cold you dont have to go outside unless you want to.

In my opinion, the best thing about the University of Minnesota Duluth is the location. I love the Duluth area because there is so much to do and see. In the winter a lot of people enjoy going to Spirit Mountain to ski or snowboard. It is also fun to go to Canal Park and walk along Lake Superior.

The best thing about my school is its location. We have the best of both world. We have pure country not far from campus and we have the city area as well. Outdoor activites are very popular here and that sets UMD apart from the other Universities of Minnesota. Not to mention our education level and teachings are of high quality.

It is liberal and not conservative. People around here have dreda and piercings and tattoos. It is normal to see that but there are also people who dress nice and are very casual. Everybody here is very nice and willing to help.

The best thing about this school is definitly the location. You live on a great lake (lake superior) and you are surrounded by the outdoors. The campus is big enough to feel like a real college but it is small enough where you feel like a name and not a number.

Small enough to get individual attention, but still a well known and respected school.

The social aspects and the commitment to environmental issues and the surrounding nature.

the people here are pretty diverse and really fun and willing to do crazy things.

Duluth is a beautiful city with many free outdoor things to do. There are many parks and places to go sledding in the winter.

The size, not too big, yet not too little.

The best thing about UMD is the availability of outdoor recreational activities. Lake Superior, BWCAW, Jay Cooke State Park, Spirit Mountain, Lutsen, Minnesota's North Shore, Canada is close, numerous parks in and around Duluth. The fishing is excellent for Pike, Waleye, Crappies, Trout, Salmon, Large and Smallmouth Bass. Grouse hunting is awesome, waterfolwers don't always take limit. The Whitetail deer is an elusive timber ghost. So many state and national parks a student could never even make it to class.

The people and the atmosphere. The party scene is usually decent.

The number of student groups that the university provides funding for, office space, and general support for. I think this is a good way to show that the university supports it's student body and their interests.

I think that UMD is a great school because we are very open to all different types of people. I think that UMD is accepting to different cultures, religions and ethnicities. There are many groups that celebrate these differences as well.

I love that all of our Teacher Assistants are international. There seems to be very little diversity at our school. Having to ask our T.A.'s for help forces us to interact with a more diverse group of people. Sometimes I would hear other students complain about how frustrating it was to not be understood by them. I think it is a very good learning experience to have to interact with someone that isn't American in order to be successfull. It will prepare us for the real world.
