I love it here! Everyone is so friendly and truly dedicated to their passions in life, and there are so many opportunities in terms of clubs and student research. All of my professors so far have been wonderful teachers in addition to being experts in their field. The weather does kinda suck in the winter but ig that's just what the Midwest is like
