University of North Dakota Top Questions

I enjoy going to UND. I attended NDSU last year and I feel like I learn more in my classes here and my grades have gotten much better. I don't think it is too big or too small of a school. I think that we have a lot of school pride for hockey, but we need to give our support to other sports.

UND seems fairly large when you first come here; however, by the time you're a senior it is as though everybody knows everybody through somebody - especially now with Facebook being so prevalent. However, it is nice to be walking across the beautiful open campus and seeing multiple people you know - it offers a sense of welcome and belonging. Now if only there was a place for everybody to park that would be convenient for the classes they have to attend - it seems as though all of the parking is located on the far end of campus.....

I think the best part of UND is the people. People are so friendly here and willing to help others. I think our campus is just the right size. We have great faculty members that go the extra mile to make sure that you understand the information. The biggest recent controversy on campus it the Gamma Phi Beta Sorority. We have a ton of school pride and it comes out at sporting events and homecoming!

cold, lots of extracurriculars, great occuaptional therapy program

I think the best thing about UND is the campus...I like the way it's set up. I would change the fact that it's in Grand Forks, because our weather here sucks. I think my school is just thr right size. It depends on who I'm telling. When I was telling my friends in high school, I felt like some of them judged me for staying here, but when I tell other people that I meet they seem just as curious and pleased about my choice as they would be with any other college. I spend most of my time in my dorm room or at my sorority. It is a college town, for sure, but I think it's a good thing because it really helps the school, it's students, and the athletic teams to have the entire city behind them with everything they do. I think the biggest controversy was the President passing the smoking ban, and also the nickname issue, but that's been going on for a long time. I think there is definitely a ton of school pride.

I like UND because it is not too big or too small. you can meet a lot of people by joining a lot of the things that are offered at UND.

The reason why I choose UND is because it is a large campus where you can always keep meeting and getting involved in different activities. It is an ever changing atmosphere but you can always find a strong familiarity. The campus is also small enough so that you can run into people you know every day and can build up great relationships with faculty and with other students.

One of the best things is the campus in the fall. It's the prettiest campus in the world. The size of the school is perfect. Everyone can find their clique. When I tell people that I go to UND, first they are surprised that I can handle the cold, then they ask about hockey. You can always find someone you know at the memorial union. Definitely college town.There is alot of school pride, especially at the hockey games.

UND is just right size wise. The last big controversy was when one of the sororities put on a Cowboys and Indians themed party. A lot of people got angry about it and thought it was offensive to Native Americans.

When I first came to UND, it was with the intention of transferring after a semester or two. Now I wouldn't trade my experiences here for anything. UND is large enough to have many choices for majors, yet small enough to know a good fraction of the student population. I'd rather be a big fish in a small pond than a small fish in a big pond. I never leave campus, unless it's to go downtown. There is no point to leaving campus because everything to do in Grand Forks is at UND. School Pride? Just a little bit. Try having classes canceled so students could watch a hockey game.
