Iowa State University Top Questions

One of the best things I have done at Iowa State is join the marching band. This is definitely one thing I brag about to my friends. The band has been a wonderful experience. Everyone involved is so hardworking, dedicated to music, and enthusiastic. Everything from the practices to the football games has been fun, and I have made many stories and lasting memories to share with my friends.

It is the best school for my program!

When I talk about my school, I talk about how committed the students are in my field. We work as a team, providing each other positive reinforcement, hold study groups for social interaction while working on schoolwork. What I like the most about my school is the people I am surrounded with, they provide support whenever I need it.

The school's national ranking. In Iowa for example: the world's largest tornado simulator.

My primary bragging point is technology! We incorporate it into every field - from developing state of the art navigation systems to drive agricultural equipment to making our city buses run on cool new fuel options. Technology is so important because it drives all the other great features - our reputation as a very forward school allows us to bring in the best research, the best faculty and the best students; our future is bright and our minds innovative because we are given all the tools, technology and otherwise, that we need to make change - and make a difference.

That ISU puts a strong emphasis on science and engineering.

It's a friendly, beautiful campus! I was worried being overwhelmed by the huge university but it definitely still has the small town feel! Anyone is willing to help!

I brag about the knowledge I have attained through engineering courses. the knowlegede is so complex and interesting that to others, not in the engineering field, might be as if it were another language.

How beautiful the campus is and how good the engineering program is.

I brag about a few things, one being the beautiful campus. Central campus is absolutely gorgeous all year, with the campanile and the lake with swans. It looks like something out of a fairytale. The other thing is that ISU is so great in engineering, design, and science in general. We aren't a lazy party college; we work hard to become the next generation of leaders and problem solvers.

I brag about our sports and the atmosphere experiencing them. In football this year, we beat our state rival, the Iowa Hawkeyes, which is bragging rights for a year. Perhaps the biggest game in our history was this past fall (2011) when Iowa State beat the No.2 team in the nation, Oklahoma State, at home. Other things I brag about are 800+ clubs that ISU offers. The food is at or exceeds restaurant quality and is delcious. The campus is open and beautiful to walk through, and everyone at ISU knows how to have a good time.

My agriculture classes, I love them. My room mates, I love them.

The campus at ISU is beautiful. The football games are amazing and a great way to meet people and build school spirit.

I always tell my friends about how awesome the sporting events are and how muh fun i have with my friends on campus. A couple other things are the professors, my classes, and the school it self. It is a world renound school and im proud to be going there.

I would brag about how friendly and widespread the environment is. I love the "big college" atmosphere Iowa State University offers, because it gives me the opportunity to continually meet new people and have new experiences that weren't offered in my high school. There are so many classes, clubs and activies to choose from too. There is just so much to do, you're never bored. I love my college!

We have one of the top engineering departments in the United States. Where some schools have one building for engineering we have like 10 buildings.

It has very good classes and the teachers actually care.

There is always something going on at this school. The sporting events are great, regardless of what sport and whether or not we win, lots of students and fans come out to support. The academics are outstanding. I especially brag about the design program. It is challenging and applicable to real life jobs. It has all the benefits and opportunities of a large University, but has the aspects of tight-knit commnities of small colleges

Iowa State is located in a great community. It is a very safe campus and you do not have to worry about walking alone at night. Unlike most other campuses Iowa State offers a lot of activities on the weekend, and you do not have to drink to have a good time. Iowa State also has great professors who are willing to take time out of their busy schedule to help their students.

I definitely brag about how beautiful the campus is. The buildings are modern and gorgeous and the town overall is very peaceful. Little violence.
