I am convinced this is the greatest collegeQuite BrightPolitical Science
I am convinced this is the greatest college on earth, and there is no buts about that. First off, I'm from california, and I had never seen snow before, and the cold DOES NOT BOTHER ME. It's just part of going to school here (although the cold seems to bother others more).

In terms of the classroom, professors are usually hit and miss. In my 4 semesters here so far, I usually get 2 incredibly awesome professors that I love, 1 okay professor, and 1 not-so-good professor. Just pay attention to ratemyprofessor.com just to make sure you don't get a professor thats too crazy. The workload can be stressful sometimes, but I feel like I'm receiving a great education.


Campus life is amazing, we rule at sports, we rule at drinking, having fun, Madison is the place to go to college. Although I'm from California, I lived in Ogg (DO NOT LIVE IN THE PRIVATE DORMS) and now living in a house which is all Wisconsinites (except me). If you are looking at big universities in college towns with a grade A party and sports scene this is the place.Although Madison is the biggest city, there is plenty of stuff to do when you don't feel like drinking. This is the greatest place in the world, if I went on and on explaining about how much I love this University, I would be typing for a week. COME HERE, THERE IS NO PLACE BETTER.
