The fact that it is the one and only Gator nation. It is a true community that contributes to the success of students and faculty alike, providing help in all fields and colleges. There is no one that is exculeded from the Gator nation; once a Gator, always Gator. This makes one feel not just as part of a college or university, but as whole nation coming together to become the successful people we see ourselves achieving within our lifetime. This thought of being as one and just one in the crowd sets the foundation of the University of Florida.

One of the best aspects of the University of Florida is the friendly atmosphere. Although it is a large campus everyone including the students, faculty, and administration really put in the effort to create a welcoming environment and provide the resources necessary to not only allow a new student to acclamate successfully into campus life but also to flourish via the provision of programs such as freshmen orientation, study and tutoring sessions, wellness and counseling services, law services, job fairs, internship fairs, and recreational activites. Garnishing success for all students who wish to and do attend the university.

One of the best things about the University of Florida is the diversity of the campus. There are people from all over the world with different cultural backgrounds. It is great when one wants to be an engineer because it provides an enviroment that allows a student to develope analytical and problem solving skills while working with other people.

The best thing about UF is the sense of community one feels from being on the campus. One gets a strong feeling of home when immersing themselves within the culture of the campus.

The best thing about my school would be the overwhleming pride students have for the school. When you walk on campus, you feel a part of something bigger than yourself. You belong to the Gator Nation. Win or lose, Gator fans stay true to their school. I love feeling the school spirit, and feeling proud to be a part of my school. The University of Florida excel in academics, athletics, research, and so much more! We can't help to be proud of our school. That's we say that it's always great to be a Florida Gator!

For a person that was a bit terrified of the idea of going to school on such a huge campus, I believe that UF's greatest asset is the level of school spirit. Students carry it in everything that they do, and it makes for a very family-oriented atmosphere. Even at orientation, you are urged to make yourself feel more apart of the Gator Nation by getting involved! It greatly downsizes the large campus, and in some ways make you that you have more in common with the people around you.

The school spirit! The University of Florida is the "Gator Nation" and it brings a sense of cohesiveness and unity to the campus. It makes different students feel like one of the same and that makes for a great and friendly atomosphere.

The best thing about my university is the vast spectrum of student organizations, and the camraderie exemplified within them. I was involved in a small choral group this year and these organizations are a great platform to making new friends, because they provide a basic interest and starting point for conversation. I love my university because of the large array of interests, and how the University does not just focus on one department, but excels in all of the different programs it offers. The diverse student body adds a critical element of the University's atmosphere.
