 | Bright | I'm not going to say that UW-L was terrible, but I certainly wouldn't recommend it either. A large problem with the school is its small size; which worked against it. The problem with UW-L being small was that the options for classes were extremely limited within my major (and other majors also). Often, it felt like being in high school, with lack of options. Furthermore, the limited class options are reflective of the lack of serious research at the university (with the exception of Exercise or Sports Science). With ESS (Exercise Sports Science) being such an important part of the university, there is somewhat of a jock-heavy elitist sort of attitude. Sadly though, despite having really good DIII atheletics, there is not a lot of school spirit. Like I said earlier, UW-L wasn't terrible, but it certainly didnt have anything to recommend it. My degree didnt help me get a job in my field, nor are any of my friends working in their fields. Overall, UW-L was just a bland, small, and forgettable school (despite the language on their website). You really can have better and more worthwhile experience somewhere else. | Preparedness: C, Reputation: F |  | |

|  | Quite Bright | | The Chancellor of the school (Joe Gowe) tore down housing ovet last summer and started construction on BRAND NEW housing for students. UWL already has 7,000 people on the wait list and he now has offered FEWER housing spots, even when the new dorm rooms come up. I (a freshman) could either live in al already-filled dorm room (a third person living in a closet? puh-lease!) OR I could live off-campus. I was quickly shoved off campus, have only one friend, and had depression and annarexia because the freshmen were closed-off (unless you lived in THEIR dorm building, then you were automatically their friend) and since I was off-campus, I suffered.Don't go unless you are PROMISED only oe room-mate and you don't mind suffering through their intense science courses! | Education Quality: A+, Social Life: F |  | | |

|  | Super Brilliant | No place to study, library closes early, cops constantly stop you on weekend nights to make sure your not drinking and you're underage, food is of poor quality (for the first week everyone is sick), students are not made aware of future plans which would involve student money, not enough resources for the number of students it takes in, larger class sizes, food runs out, dirty dining areas, money is spent towards top programs while others suffer, not enough dorm rooms for students so studies are converted into rooms and two person rooms are housing 3 people. | Perceived Campus Safety: A+, Faculty Accessibility: F |  | | |
