The best thing is all of the options. While The University of Akron is well known for it's engineering programs, there are many other programs that will set you in the right direction for your future.

The best thing about my school was the gym facility. It was, honestly, the nicest thing on campus and the only place I enjoyed to go. They have a rock climbing wall, which is the 2nd largest rock climbing wall in Ohio. There are tons of machines available for working out, also many courts for basketball, volleyball, etc. There is a wave-pool, two hot tubs, and an olympic sized pool for those who want to swim competitively. I loved going here also, because they offered trainers for those who wanted to lose weight or gain muscle with a professional.

The professors.

The best thing about the University of Akron is the convienience and the access to multiple resources. The faculty is willing and ready to help and there are facilities like math labs, writing labs and computer labs scattered around the campus.

The best thing about going to Frances Payne Bolton School of Nursing at Case Western Reserve University is their commitment to excellence. The courses required to earn a master's degree in nursing are very comprehensive, innovative and futuristic. The master's program prepares the advanced nurse practioner for her role as a psychotherapist and clinical nurse specialist. This blended nursing course will provide me with the skills and resources I will need to practice successfully as a mental health nurse. The insttuctors are approachable, empathetic and supportive. I am encouraged and inspired by the instructors at this school.

The quality that I believe is best about the University of Akron is the feeling that it is both a big and small college. It has the benefits of a large University with many different and varying majors, while it also has a small intimate feeling with many classes with less than thirty students where your teacher can know your name.

The professor and student relationships are almost always positive

The best thing about my school is the newer buildings that they have built.

The best thing about University of Akron, is the diversity of the students, because this allows one to meet a lot of intersting people and keep people open minded to new cultures.

The one unique thing that really sticks out to me when asked about our campus is our Rock Candy Statue that sits outside our new Polymer Engineering building. You can see it from a long way away, and it will definitely catch your eye. That statue is truly unique to our campus, and I'm pretty positive that no other college has done something quite like that.

My professors are outstanding! They engage in thought provoking lectures and provide an open and interesting atmosphere. My professors are interested in mentoring and developing me, even as a freshman. They make an effort to learn about their students and continue to challenge. I am vey happy here.

The best thing about the University of Akron is the faculty. As a psychology major, I established numberous relationships with my professors, which was the most beneficial move I ever made in college. Not only did it make my learning experience more engaging, but it also opened up a world of advise and guidance. I like to believe the psychology faculty is one of the main reasons I strived at this university. They truly have a passion for their work and ultimately express their desire of seeing students succeed.

There is a diverse offering of classes and majors. Also, the professors care about students success and class sizes are reasonable.

the overall enviroment

The best thing about my school is the people on campus. Again, we all come from different backgrounds and share the some of the same goals. I have met around 1,000 or so people on campus due to being a part of the Emerging Leaders program here on campus. Coming here, I didn't know anyone. No one came here from my high school. I have met some of the friendliest people in my time here. I didn't know I could have so much fun while being in a new place, but I'm certainly glad I came.

The profesrors are understanding and work with the students.

I consider the accessibility and willingness of our professors to communicate with and work with the diverse sudents at the University of Akron as well as, the diversity of the professors themselves, to be our campuses greatest asset. This has greatly improved over the years, as our universitiy presidents and administrators have changed. There are still a few who regard themselves as the prince or princess and others who are different-non-traditional, from them as the mud beneath the cape over the puddle, upon which they are standing. I thought that education was the great equalizer! I still believe!

In my opinion, the best thing about my school is the honors program. As an honors student, I have access to the beautiful new Honors Complex on campus. I also get priority registration for classes, which means I never have to worry about a class I want to take being too full, or not being able to take a class from any professor of my choice.

The best thing about my school is the fact that it is so diverse. We have people from all backgrounds, recial groups and income levels. And being in a city gives you expierencs that are unique to this school.

I like the schools structure. It is easy to get to classes and has great activities to do to keep busy after class.
