Radford University Top Questions

Describe your favorite campus traditions.

Alyssa

My school is honestly best known for our previous party lifestyle. While there are still parties at my school we all as a whole students, faculty and administration are working to change that image. That party image is a negative comment that no longer applies to this campus. It is now a dry campus and all mythical raging parties have long sense disappeared from this campus.

Charles

From what I've heard from students who attend Radford, along with fellow classmates back in high school, Radford is well known for being the biggest party school on the western part of Virginia. Though this is what I have heard most about Radford, it is not on my list of college priorities.

Elizabeth

The Highlander Fest that happens every Fall semester at the beginning of October. There are traditional Scottish/Irish games like stone tossing and there is food and vendors with traditional items.

Matthew

Brianna MacPherson

My school is best known for our nursing major, criminal justice major, and interior design major. Radford is one of the best schools in Virginia when it comes to these three academic feilds because the work load is difficult but you are guarenteed a good education and a good job afterwards.

Melinda

My school is best known for being a smaller, well-kept, pretty campus that throws really good parties.

Morgan

Unfortunately, Radford is known for a lot of partying and craziness. Let me be the first to say, what college isn't like that? I hate the reputation that comes along with Radford sometimes and while you can often go out and have a good time, you will still be getting a great education here at Radford University.

Katherine

Before I came to Radford, I thought it was best known for its excessive drinking and partying. Now that I go here, I see that is not the case. I now see that Radford is best known for its nursing program. Many people come here specifically for nursing.

This school is mostly know for its party habits. I think it is a bad thing to be know for, but it doesn't mean that every student that attends this school drinks. There are many other things to do at this school other than party.
