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.
