Tough but Caring
Lawrence University offers small class sizes and professors that are willing to help anytime. Because of the trimester schedule students in the university (not the conservatory) generally take 3 classes but some overload and take 4. Because students take only 3 classes professors expect that students focus more heavily on their classes. It is also very easy to have a self designed class. Because of the fewer students professors can focus more on each student and what that student wants to study. There are amazing study aboard programs all around the world and it is highly encouraged. Physics and Biology are popular areas of study.

No Need for Much Transportation
Lawrence is a very campus and anyone can walk from one end to the other in less than 10 minutes. College Ave. has many great restaurants and shops and students mostly walk up and down the street. To travel further Lawrence offers free shuttles for students to the mall and grocery stores. The city of Appleton also offers buses.

Cool Nerd
Lawrence to me felt like a place where everyone is a nerd but that is okay. Everyone is accepted for who they are. The students at Lawrence are generally progressive. Parties are open to everyone and no one is turned away. Because we are such a small community everyone finds their place and everyone gets along because everyone knows everyone.

Wide Variety
College Ave. has a wide variety of restaurants for students to enjoy. Many love Taste of Thai which is almost on campus. Toppers is also a staple. They serve pizza, sandwiches, and wings. The best part they are open until 3am. They also deliver! Erbs and Gerbs is also popular. It is a sub shop and they are open late. Harmony Cafe is also extremely close to campus. They serve coffee and food and have a fantastic atmosphere.

Huge Rooms!
The dorms are amazing. All my friends from other schools never believe how big our dorms are. There are several dorms and each one creates a special community. Due to the small campus all the dorms are pretty close to everything.

Naturally Beautiful
You are not going to find the average bleach blonde at Lawrence. All the women are smart and naturally beautiful. They dress well and are well read. The men tend to dress very well and are active. Many ride around campus on long boards. Many people have relationships with people on campus. It is not difficult to find someone if you put yourself out there.
