What's unique about your campus?

Meghan

The best thing about George Mason university is all that is has to offer. It is close enough where I can still live at home and continue to save before moving out on my own. It also provides me with a variety of class times. This allows me to work full time so that I am still able to help cover my school cost as my parents aren't able to help as much as I wish they could. George Mason is all around the perfect school for me and I hope others as well.

The multiple opportunities that they offer us through our classes, internships and multiple events held on campus. It allows us to explore the world around us without leaving campus. It enables students to pursue their careers in depth or discover what they want to do.

Danielle

I believe that the best thing about George Mason is the easy access and quick responses by the professors. No email goes unaswered and all professors, and adamic advisors, or more than willing to help out every student to make sure they succeed.

Diana

In my opinion, the best thing about George Mason University is their diverse community. It is a place where one is able to meet people from different places and backgrounds and as such does not feel intimidated in expressing their ideas. A community that cares and despite the many differences comes togehter to work on a common goal is one that is worth being a part of; and Mason provides one such envirionment. This defining chareacter of the institution makes it possible for students to feel a sense of belonging and motivates them to be better individuals.

I think the best thing about my school is the diversity and the wide variety of majors. I could have attended an HBCU (Historically Black College/ University), but I wanted to attend a college that catered to many nationalities and ethinicities. I also wanted to attend a college/ university with my preferred major. I intend on majoring in Forensic Science and Forensic Science is a hard major to come across. The closest major you can find to Forensic Science is Biology and Chemistry. I am very happy that I found an amazing college that has what I want.

The experience is really what you make it. Meet potential life-long friends, find a professor who can become a mentor, and join the hundreds of clubs GMU has to offer. There are also many events the university holds throughout the year that are known to be memorable.

I donot know about the other GMU students/faculty/etc' views, but i think the university is helping in producing the broad and enlighened minds. Take "racial diversity" as a simple example. I mean to say that the university has realised that a smart way to educate people is to mix people from different ethnicities, by which each individual will be aided by a new and different views or ideas to apply in their lives and excel in their studies. In addition to that, the university is diluting the feeling of discrimination and educating people to harmoniously live together.

Corie

I like the community the best. Everyone is so friendly and accomidating to my needs. If I need a helping hand, somone is always there, even if I don't know them.

Catriona

The best thing about my school is the diversity of the students, staff, and professors. There is an openess and acceptance of all types of people. It is a truly incredible experience to be in classes with people of all ages, gender, ethnicity, race, etc. and to be able to learn from their unique life experiences. People are so willing to share their different cultures with their peers. My school promotes an appreciation for the rest of the world which I believe is the one of the most important things college can give a person.

The best thing about my school is that it is very green. GMU has a recycling program that is amazing. At southside, (an all you can eat restautaunt on campus) all of the waste is decompossed into fertizler. GMU is also green because the entire campus has flowers and trees. I choose to attend GMU because I could enjoy campus any season.
