Northern Michigan University

Its the UP

I think that weather here changes constantly because we are in the UP so one day it could be 70 and then the next day it could be snowing it really just depends on what mother nature wants to send our way.

Yoopers

The drug scene isn't even noticeable, so if it's happening I have no idea. As far as drinking it's not huge, but I wouldn't say that a good majority of people do it either. Just really depends on who you're with and where you are.

Ice Cream

There is a great ice cream shop about 15mins away from campus. It's a very small little shop but it had a very quirky charm about it. The best part was after we got the ice cream there was a nice little bench near by on the edge of a lake where we could watch the sunset while eating our ice cream.
