Mostly, the opportunities I get. I have been offered chances to travel abroad for photography programs, master classes through the dance department with well known dancer/choreographers, and plenty of other exciting opportunities. Another bragging right I feel I have is of course the success of our school atheletics. Not once in my high school career did I attend a high school football game, because I simply hated the school. Here I have school spirit and when our teams do well I tend to get excited about it!

I brag most about the environment that is Appalachian State. I love tradition in many aspects of life but it was especially important when I was choosing a school. To me Appalachian has a rich tradition that you can't help but get involved in. So when I say I brag about the environment, I i brag about our specialized programs, our athletics, and the type of people you meet when your here which is quite different from the average.

Students are allowed to stress their point of view. You can do as well as you wish - it is totally up to you. The teachers instruct but it is up to you to deliver. It has alot of outdoor activities available. There is always something going on on campus. Very active and friendly campus

Amazing school spirit and football team. This school is one of the best eduactional values for the money in the country. Amazing college and ski town where everyone supports the school. And the alumni are very helpful when giving back to the school.

How peaceful it is when you get away from campus, and how you don't have to go far to find a good hiking trail or rock wall. How this is a beautiful area to be going to school in because of the weather and the scenery. And also how the professors help a lot.

It's surrounded by beautiful mountains and there is so much to do outside. My classes are small and very interesting with professors who are there primarily to teach and have a strong interest in the students. There are many resousrces on campus to help you with just about anything you need. Everyone in Boone is very friendly and helpful.
