The greatest thing about my school was that, no matter what the course, the professors were all very passionate and well versed in their areas of interest. Not only that, but they genuinely wanted us to learn the material.

The diversity on campus. There are students from all over the country and the world that you meet. I learned to see thing from others perpectives. It was a great learning experience and I was able to come out of my shell while attending Iowa.

The best thing about the University of Iowa is that although it is a Big 10 school, it feels like a smaller college because there is only 22,000 students and the campus is so small that you have enough time to get to class, yet big enough that you can avoid friends if you want.

I think the best thing about the University of Iowa is how involved the community is in the school.

The amount of campus activities and resources and the walkability of the campus. Also the encouragement of diversity and cultural and artistic environments and activities. Another thing would be the lack of fast food restaurants due toe the large number of local or smaller food chain restaurants.

The University of Iowa campus is unique because it was founded in the middle of a small town that has grown up around it. Now the University is expanding and growing out into the community. It's nice because students live directly inside the town and have access to all the unique restaurants and shops as well as music venues, farmers markets, and arts festivals. Students without a car on campus can take the Cambus anywhere on campus or can hop on an Iowa City Transit bus or Coralville Transit bus to get either of the malls in the area for a movie or to go shopping. The campus is also just a few minutes off of I-80, making it very convenient when returning to or from home.

Learning. Why else would you go to school?
