What impressed you positively?

"The buildings were new and nice. Frodhert Hospital is right next door. Every building on campus is connected so you don't have to worry about the cold Milwaukee weather too much. The students were extremely nice. The grading isn't bell curve based so people try to help each other (not that cut-throat). They always seem to find funding if you want to do research (which I do). The cafeteria is nice and reasonably priced. So is the housing; apparently a good apartment with 1 roommate runs about $500. They have tons of teachers and faculty full time; professors are extremely accessible via e-mail and HOME phone #. They will get their decision back to you in 1 week! (For us it is two since thanksgiving is next week.)" Report Response
