I brag most about the wonderful opportunity I had to live in a scholarship hall, teaching an anatomy cadaver lab, and, of course, the Jayhawk Basketball team. I met all of my best friends and husband through living in Sellards Scholarship Hall and have encouraged students interested in KU to seriously consider living in one of the twelve halls. Moving into that envirnment was like moving into a family! I also loved learning and teaching other students through the cadaver lab at KU. I am so glad to have these experiences! Go Jayhawks!

I tell them that the campus is really pretty especially in the fall when the leaves are changing - the area around the campanile and Potter's lake is the prettiest.

Rachel

When discussing different elements of our seperate college lives, I gush to my friends about KU and all of its offerings. One of my favorite aspects to mention about KU are the resources. As a freshman, I am already involved in tutor groups, study sessions, appointments at the writing center, and visiting professors during study hours. With even the slightest bit of effort, students can receive as much help as they want with assignments, papers, or just getting involved in campus life at the university. I appreciate how encouraging all the KU staff is in terms of getting students involved!

Christina

I brag most about campus. They truly care about our campus and keep it clean. Every time I walked to class I would just look around and appreciate the fact that I could attend such a beautiful campus. I also enjoyed it because students were able to study outside which made for a very nice break from the library when the weather was nice.

Teraney

When I come home from school I like to brag about Budig Hall. The University of Kansas huge one thousand person lecture hall. I?ve had the most interesting classes there like Biology, Microeconomics, Accounting, and Information Systems. I like to talk about Budig because since there are 1,000 people in your class you have to have a lot of will power to stay focused on lecture and not look at your neighbors laptop while they?re playing games. I have to admit that I glanced over a couple of times but not too often.
