Brittany

When talking about Mizzou, I brag most about the friendly nature of everyone here. I still meet new people and make lasting friendships every week. Students at this university understand that we are all here for the same reason; to get an education. Everyone is so supportive and accepting of eachother. The phrase "One Mizzou" is not just a propaganda tactic used by the university; it's the true foundation this school is built on.

The exceptional faculty, the exceptional environment, and the great area

Caleb

I brag about the equipment, supplies, and people that we get to work with.

Rosa

The amazing student body definitely makes the campus atmosphere better for every student. Everyone is nice, helpful, and supportive. Even with the 30,000+ student count, I've yet to find anyone that disrupts this atmosphere.

Jaynee

I brag the most about how great my professors are. My professors really care about their students and help them achieve their goals. If you ever have any problem you can go to your advisor or any other professor. If you need help in a class they are always willing to find you help or help you themselves. If you just need someone to talk to they are always there to help when needed. The professors at the University of Missouri are truely great resources for many things and I love the connections and relationships that I have with them.

Sammy

The welcoming environment that Mizzou offers to incoming students, and the resources that are available for students to thrive personally and academically. The school spirit present at Mizzou is unmatched because everyone at Mizzou truly believes in the idea that we are "One Mizzou." The University of Missouri is very racially and ethnically diverse, and it is very amazing to see individuals of all colors and backgrounds learning together in order to better the world. Another bragging point is that Mizzou is a research university with many oppurtunities for undergraduates to get involved with research.

Alexis

The things I brag about most are the resources that the University of Missouri provides for its faculty, students and even visitors. One of the biggest resources on campus is the student access to over 750 clubs and organizations. 750. There is something for everyone at this university, which helps students discover the away-from-home family they seek in deciding where they want to go to school. And if there isn't a club or interest group that exists on campus, it only takes seven people to create it!

kaitlyn

Mizzou has a small town feel to it's campus, you don't feel like your just a number.

Laurel

Majoring in music here, I feel like I am far ahead of my high school class. One of my best friends is pursuing music at a conservatory and he is covering material now that we covered in the first couple of months of school. I also like to talk about how well our sports teams are doing and how good our dining hall food is.

dorian

I can say that we have one of the best looking campus' in the country and are respected worldwide for our journalism schol and also our academics as a whole are something to brag about. Our Basketball team is one of the elite teams in the country as well.

Yuliya

University of Missouri has a lot to offer, but I brag most about our outstanding Journalism program and our amazing Mizzou Tigers football and basketbal teams. Since many of my friends are from New York City and chose to study there, many of them do not have the school spirit that Mizzou has. It is a great honor to go to a school that values tradition and spirit.

Chelsea

I mostly tell people about all the cool stuff we have. From the dining halls to the locations for studying, shopping, and working out, I think Mizzou has a lot to brag about.

Benjamin

Mizzou is a great place, where we party harder than you. We have more fun than you. Our people are more attractive then you. We are the best, simply put, and it shows in everything we do. Brad Pitt went here. We do not mess around.

Nuria

Mizzou is the perfect university for the aspiring journalist; not only does it offer the best and oldest school of journalism in the nation, but it also provides a wide range of opportunities for hands-on experience in the field. At no other college can students choose between working at a local NPR outlet, anchoring for an NBC-affiliated television station, or writing for an award-winning city newspaper. By expertly combining the theoretical with the practical, Mizzou goes above and beyond the role of mere educational institute--it equips students for the trials of working in the real world.

Amy

The sports are amazing at the University of Missouri and that, in turn, leads to great school spirit! Everybody that attends M.U. or ever attended absolutely loves it and is a fan for life. That alone was a big selling point when I had to choose a college to go to.
