Appalachian is known for its scenery. We're smack dab in the middle of the mountains and to be honest, sometimes it's breathtaking when you're walking to class and you're minds on all the things you have to do for the day and suddenly you see those gorgeous mountains. Nature is timeless, you never get tired of seeing something so beautiful and so majestic. The mountains almost have a personality of their own, and you can almost feel as if they feel the season with you. It's strange, but lovely.

Our school is best known for the lovely campus. I can talk about its great welcoming on football Saturdays, or its perfect climate to do some scientific research. But the campus is what makes App State so great, because if one takes a short walk through the grounds on a 60-degree sunny day, he will find multitudes of students playing Frisbee, lacrosse, football; others are studying, congregating with friends, or enjoying the nice weather. Plus, non-students, citizens of Boone will walk their dogs and such things. It is refreshing sight when schoolwork is overbearing.

Appalachian serves a variety of interests. Mostly buisness, accounting, and the art school is quite competitive. The buisness school was something that turned me off immediately.
