Missouri University of Science and Technology Top Questions

The location of the town it's located in. The town lacks activities that larger cities ofter, such as concerts, malls, sporting events, and a broad choice of dining.

The worst thing about my school is the town it is located in. The town of Rolla is very dull and does not have very many cheap things to do for fun.

The social life away from drinking including athletics. There are so few students at this campus that want to hang out without alcohol and few that attend sporting events. There are even fewer who actually play sports for fun.
