I have run into some racism (from both the white and the black students), even though this is unfortunate, you have to keep in perspective that every campus has this problem. Next, I am from a big city, most of these people are from very small towns, they tend to be close minded. If you do not drink, there is nothing to do on campus, other then study and hang out with your sober friends. This is also a backpack campus, it is dead on the weekends, which can be nice, yet lonely because some of your friends will be gone. Yet, I have found numerous opportunities here. As a freshman I am doing independent research and one of my professors offered me a summer research fellowship. This is a rare opportunity. All in all, there are both negative and positive things about this campus and I am only staying because of the research opportunities that I am getting.

However, many of my friends are from large cities as well. Being that we are such a small school and community compared to the major schools, we have the opportunity to get to know so many of the people on campus whether faculty or staff. I would not leave Platteville as it offers tons of hands on experience and has many specialty labs. There are also numerous organizations that you can get involved with that are fun and inviting.
