Major: Nuclear Engineering (This Major's Salary over time)
Being from a small town near a big city, the overall size of Madison is not a big deal. The academics here are awesome, and the university knows it. Most courses are curve graded, making it a disadvantage to study and collaborate with others. I do not consider this a bad thing, as it forces many students to study on their own and be self-dependent. There is a wide variety of intelligence levels within the school. As a nuclear engineer, I study with some of the brightest minds in the university. However, not every program as I understand it is as challenging as what I have experienced. I must admit, however, that if it were not for the academics at this school, I wouldn't think twice about leaving. All the "activities" you may have heard about in Madison all include alcohol and immorality. There are a few Christian groups to get involved in, but these are less than 1% of the school's population. If you choose not to drink yourself stupid every weekend, and to keep up in your classes, you must work solid through the weekend to keep up. This doesn't some people. As I see it, that is why we pay the money, and it's why we can take pride in our academics. If I were to recommend this school or not, I would have to know the person. If you are an immoral person, come here!!!!!!!! If you are a strong person in your faith and in your morals and want to test yourself, come here!! If you want strong academics, come here. Otherwise, you may be better off to look elsewhere.
