Has an urban setting in a rural area.

The best thing about my college is the freedom! Not only am I out of the coils of my parents, but I no longer have to fit into the "High School" mold. This is not the only freedom I am referring to however. I have hundreds of exciting classes to choose from, everything from shopping to eating out within a 10 minute walk, and the space to explore myself. I literally feel as if I have the world at my fingertips.

The scenery and being by the lake is breathtaking. Eating on the terrace and over-seeing the clear water is beautiful and makes every moment of eating your meal ever more enjoyable. Even though the campus is 933 acres, all the classes are walk able and within the 15 minute grace period given to get to each class. Another thing I like about the university is the activism that brings the students together. The university brought together a safe place to be able to break from your comfort zone and open up.

The best thing about my school is the amount of choices there are. A student can take whatever class interests them, and it will (most likely) count towards their graduation requirements.
Peter
The best thing about my school is that with so many people on campus, you get to meet someone new every week.

I believe that the best thing about our school is the amount of extra-curricular activities available to students. There are more than six hundred registered student organizations at UW-Madison, and many more unregistered student organizations. These clubs provide multiple opportunities for students to meet new people who share their interests and passions, as well as develop crucial leadership and organizational skills. These organizations also coordinate concerts, free films, and other events that provide multiple opportunities for students to get together and have fun without drinking.

The social life because it is fun and you meet lots of people.

The best thing about University of Wisconsin-Madison (besides "Jump Around" during the football games of course) is that it is a huge university yet it has so many ways for anyone to find their place and make the campus smaller and feel more like home. Also, it is one of the best elementary education schools in the country which is a huge reason why I chose to attend UW-Madison.

There is enough different types of people to give one a good impression on how different people think and act in the real world. Aside from that the T.A.'s seem very good.
William
It is one of the best values in college in the world. It consistently ranks in the top ten in every program it offers, and the students reflect that rank. For me, I can have incredibly nerdy conversations about technology, the universe, whatever and everyone has the knowledge base to chime in and give their opinion. Then with those same people I can go play ultimate frisbee, go to football games, go rock climbing and have bonfires. Being intellectual and cool are not mutually exclusive things at UW Madison, and thats why I love it here.
