Wonderful, compassionate, inspirational, and hard-working professors create an atmosphere that transcends the before-thought of what college was suppose to be like, and creates a place that you enjoy to better yourself instead of a societal ritual that we must all pass. The mathematical system needs improvement and the advisers need more education and experience, however those are the only negatives and can be surpassed if one looks and talks around with other classmates, who are always willing to aid one another. Lastly, one's tuition can obviously be seen in use by the amazing buildings that have been erected; from technologically advanced science laboratories to amazingly stunning work-out facility with an indoor/above-ground track and rock climbing area, this college can give anyone the ability to reach their lives' dream with a little bit of hard-work and determination.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Ask other students, preferably upperclassmen, for advice on what classes to take, and especially the professors of the basic classes because the advisers are not always sure what they are saying, and don't always give the best advice.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
The professors always are willing to aid in anything a student needs, even if they personally cannot help they will find someone who is able. There are also many clubs and groups that not only do things for fun and sport, but to educate and give culture for those who seek more education.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
They have three dorm facilities and each one is very nice. University Village is the cheapest, and smallest of them all, however it still holds a very pleasant charm and gives a real persona of what an outside apartment would be like; it also sits a few steps away from the main University. Scott Court/Village is a ways away from the facility, however they have a shuttle that runs all day back and forth; the life there is better than University Village in the since that there is more room and a little better quality of the rooms and living spaces. Maverick Village is the more expensive, but better of the three, however it makes up by being close to the University, having its own parking garage, and having the largest amount of space, beautiful kitchen and living area, and wonderful warm rooms with a patio or a terrace.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
The food is very good, always fresh and made everyday, and it's always available at the Student Center along with a convenience store. The only issue is that it is a little over priced, so one should only eat there if they only have a little bit of time, otherwise they could go to the mall down the street, or take the shuttle bus to Scott Court and walk to Aksarben Village for some food.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
UNO has a lot to do for fun, it only matters what you think is fun. At the new and stunning HYPR Building they have: an inside/upper-level track, a rock climbing area, a spa, an Olympic size pool, workout station, basket-ball courts, and other courts and areas for classes like, ballet, yoga, zumba, etc. They have a multicultural hour every week where people from all over the world come together to play a game, like baseball or soccer, or to have a conversation and culture themselves. UNO has many sororities, and fraternities, clubs like the equestrian club, tennis club, quittage club, larping club, equality club, Christian clubs, Muslim clubs, etc. There is also always something going on with the college, for example the other week they had a local theme park give free admissions to students with their I.D. card from 9:00 until 12:00 in the evening.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Tuition is always a burden, however if you go to class, take part in clubs and the seemingly weekly free events that UNO offers, and make use of the amazing HYPR building, it is completely worth the money.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
It is right next to the Elmwood park where a lot of different clubs, like quittage and larping, go to practice their skills. Memorial park is across the street and is a hotspot for free concerts, which Omaha itself has a lot of.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Any students are a fit for this college, just because of how different and diverse it is.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
All of the clubs at UNO have some sort of impact, or have been talked about amongst the students. It seems as if, if you have an interest in something, there is a club for it that has a good size and good-minded people. If there isn't a club for whatever you like, which would be strange, then you can surely start on easily and undoubtedly it would get range and strength in no time.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
Always fun, always inviting, always easy to get into, but not to dangerous and threatening.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
It has been a goal of UNO to make sure the safety of the students on campus are secure and intact. There are poles mounted everywhere in which if a student were being attacked, or chased they can push this button and immediately campus security and local police are informed and on the spot. They are friendly and make life on campus feel more secure and safe for everyone.
