Variety of Students

There is no "typical student" at Madison. Everyone is very different when it comes to dress and interests. Thats what makes this campus so nice is that there is a great variety of people with many interests. No two people are alike on this campus.

Nightlife for All

Transportation for nightlife is very good. There are safe ride cabs and buses all around campus along with safe walk. Nightlife here includes parties, many bars around the area, but there are also many other non-party events such as those hosted at the Union. Movies are provided for free on most saturday nights and if you're in the dorms, many movie nights and free food nights are an option.
