NIU is your standard state university. I've had nothing but good experiences here. The weather sucks, and there is some violent crime off-campus, generally near Greek Row. I feel safe on campus, but I wouldn't walk around town at night by myself. The social life is mediocre at best. There are a lot of close-minded people at this school. A lot of people already have their clique from high school. Overall, I like the university, but I don't care for a good chunk of the students. The convo center doesn't get too many good acts, and there are too many wannabe gang-bangers.
