Janet

I love that all students are supportive of the teams. They are like one big family support system. It is really incredible.

Emily

There are so many thing that are great about my university, but if I had to choose one thing that I love most about our school, it would be the large amount of diversity that we have. There are people from so many different ethnical and cultural backgrounds, and so much that we can learn from them. The University of Tennessee prides themselves on their students being open to and accepting of others with different backgrounds, and people that have ideals different from yourself. The campus has such a welcoming environment, and that is why I enjoy being here.

LONDON

The availability of several eating facilities and local convenient stores is definitly two of the best things on my campus. As an athlete, I have a full day of activities from class to practice to tutoring and the size of the campus is very large. Locating food near every building allows me to eat at proper times and it eliminates the extra time needed to travel to just one facility.

Mason

The best thing about the University of Tennessee is the overwhelming amount of school spirit. There is not a sight in the city of Knoxville where no orange or the words "rocky top" are featured. The school may not have championship winning teams, but it does have a huge student cheering section following the teams everywhere they go.

Samantha

My hometown is not that diverse, so I only comprehend things or ideas from one perspective. At The University of Tennessee, I will experence a new ways of veiwing ideas.

Zachary

The best thing about my school is that it is a very good research institute. The engineering department is spectacular. The choices we have open to us as far as major and minors we can choose is very large. I am disappointed that there is no theology department though, although there is a religious studies course that I am taking, but its more like a sociology course than a class about God.

Arnie

Ability to blame it on the alcohol.

Dinara

A variety of extracurricular activities. The campus is lively because there is always an event happening on a daily basis. The best thing about my school is you can take advantage of all the opportunities (in terms of joining and bringing a positive change to any academic organization or social club). You can learn a lot from the lectures given by award-winning professors, successful businessmen, charity organizations leaders, company professionals from any field. Students should definitely develop their networking skills in order to get good internships at good companies that might provide full time jobs in future. Stay involved!
