When I tell my friends about University of Illinois I brag most about being independent and on my own. I have learned alot of responsibility having lived on my own and I am most proud of that. I also brag about the football team:)

The classes and professors are awesome. The choices of classes and programs are incedible. The professors are leaders in their field, and are often well-known writers and respected researchers. Our class discussions are in-depth, thought-provoking and full of great information. They inspire us to think deeper about a topic or to come back the next day to ask more questions.

We have a lot of camraderie and school spirit.
Jessica
The fact that I met my best friends there, the opportunities I sought out with Illini Media (even though they pretty much used me for free labor and gave me little job advice), Murphy's Pub, and the really great music scene and local community. The fact that if you know how to seek out fun and things to learn, U of I is a really great school. It's a big enough place to really strech out and learn how to do things on your own, but not too big where you can get into much trouble.
Julia
The thing I brag most about when I tell my friends about my school would probably have to be how high the acedemic standards are here at the University of Illinois. Being at such a prestigious school makes me proud and I love nothing more than to acknowledge that.
Stephanie
I'm not really sure. It's in the middle of nowhere, but it's a good school.
Andrea
If I were to brag about the University of Illinois, I would say that it is preparing me for the real world in a smaller setting, since your future really is in your own hands here. Help is available, but it must be sought out. I would also say that our sporting events are great to attend, full of energy and spirit of the students and alumni. Being apart of the athletic bands has allowed me to experience this excitement first-hand.
Kayesha
The variety of interesting/engaging courses and how much can be learned. Also, the vast opportunities for social enrichment.
Ryan
I brag about how the education here is almost equal to that of an ivy league university. Also because I'm from such a small town I like to tell everyone that it's so easy to do and act how you want because there are other people just like you here on campus.
James
That it is never boring and I am having the time of my life.
Jordan
This school has something for everyone. You can completely ignore any part of the university that doesn't fit you, such as sports, fraternaties/sororities, alcohol, etc.
Cara
There is a way to do everything at U of I. You can be whoever you want and you will fit right in somewhere.
