University of Nevada-Reno Top Questions

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

Sylvia

The campus is beautiful, there are many majors, and there are a lot of activities that you can get involved in. There are over 150 clubs on campus, and there are concerts about every week. Sport events are also very big.

Amanda

Probably the extracurricular activities. Academics has always been interesting to me, but the activities and organizations available to students outside the classroom are always the most fun. Being involved in extracurricular organizations and activities have, in turn, made me more interested in my classes as well as exposed me to intellectual people that I wouldn't have met otherwise. These organizations and activities give the students a reason to spend many hours on campus and get involved with the university, keeping it from being just another commuter school.

Caitlin

I brag most about the amount of fun I have inside and outside the classroom. I absolutely love what I'm studying, so I find classes to be entertaining. Outside the classroom, I'm very involved (intramural sports, sorority, and student-leadership positions), so I always have something fun to do.

THIS IS NEVADA'S BEST KEPT SECRET! I usually brag about how in my Journalism courses, it's not just professors, but men and women who have had hands-on experience working in the field they are now teaching in. You don't just feel like it's a teacher preaching to you, they actually know what they are talking about and have gone through what we are going through.
