A small, Catholic university for independent thinkers, located in Irving, between Dallas and the DFW airport. Students at UD, as it is abbreviated, engage in a large core curriculum that spans history, literature, philosophy, theology, art, and a few other liberal arts areas. The school offers majors in any of the above mentioned areas, as well as in the sciences, politics, business, and finance, among others. Class sizes are small, ranging from 5 to 30 students in each class. The Rome Program at UD offers the chance to live in Rome, Italy for a whole semester at the University of DAllas Rome Campus. Students will travel throughout Italy and Greece with their professors giving classes and on-site lectures, as well as the 10-day vacation in which students go wherever they please. 4 day class weeks and 3 day weekends allow the opportunity to travel wheresoever you wish while spending your 4 months in paradise. Outside the classroom, students' activities are varied. The Division 3 sports teams play, some are more competitive(ie mens soccer), while others are struggling to get going. For some, rugby is a religion that many young men convert to when they attend UD. Rugby plays in Division 2 and is also competitive. Those that aren't interested in sports enjoy quieter activities on campus ranging from film festivals to lecture series to other healthy, sober forms of fun. Many student choose to drink, and underage drinking, along with binge drinking and marathon drinking are all extremely prevalent, necessary even, from Thursday to Sunday, with a Monday, Tuesday, and occasionaly Wednesday thrown in. UD's small undergrad size(~1300) does not stop its students from partying, and those that want to drink will get a first rate training from upperclassmen and alumni that haven't been able to move on after graduation.
Expect a first-rate education and classmates of exceptional intelligence(mostly) at UD. Also expect those intelligent students to be stumbling around campus at 4am on Thursday night after TGIT(thank God its thursday) when they have a midterm on Friday morning.

All it really has going for it are the magic mushrooms that grow there, but that still makes it better than the University of York.
Lancaster University broke my soul.

The University of Memphis is located in Memphis Tennessee, pretty much the only school that isn't full of racist, homophobic frat boys (University of Tennessee). Our culturally diverse campus, outstanding football team, basketball teams, and music scene are what makes the Tigers stellar. Students trick people into going to religious events by promising free food and naming it something that doesn't sound religious at all. Where the music and theatre majors are always high, and all of the parties play the same five fucking trap songs over and over. Even the white ones. Frat row is the scariest place to walk at night in Memphis.
Go Tigers Go and fuck Ole Piss
The University of Memphis has the finest and baddest bitches in Tennessee.

One of the best choices of my life was to choose Marshall University for my undergraduate studies. Compact campus, great professor to student ratio for classes, and just awesome people to be around. Named after chief justice John Marshall, Marshall University is an excellent choice. Home of the Thundering Herd members of Conference USA(CUSA) who consistently perform well in both football and basketball under coaches Doc Holiday and Tom Herrion. Opportunities to be involved and make friends on campus are always coming up such as an active greek community as well as organizations such as the Marching Thunder,Cheerleading and the Marshall Maniacs.
Academic wise Marshall has one of the top medical schools in the area as well as a Forensic Science Graduate Program that is top ranked in the country, based on overall test scores on a recent national assessment test. Teaching Degrees are also very highly ranked at Marshall.
Marshall is the heart of the town in which it sits, Huntington WV. Its history is interwoven with the city and the residents eat, sleep, and breath, green and white. After the 1970 plane crash featured in the film We Are Marshall, the community truely came together to become a part of the University. School spirit is nothing short of amazing here and I wouldn't trade my time here for anything. GO HERD, WE ARE MARSHALL!!!
Me: Man did you see the Marshall University bball game last night against Tulsa?
Friend: yeah that was intense the whole town turned out for it.
Me:Its great how much support they get from the community. Go Herd!
