University of Minnesota-Duluth in Duluth

Be very careful when choosing to go to this school. They employ jack-boot police thugs to trample on your rights.

My graduation application has been pending for fall 2918 has been pending for months, tried talking to advisors and emailing people and no lock. Also the new 16 digit passwords with a security app are out of control

The staff and environment is usually pretty good. However, there is a strong politically biased undertone with most professors and the general population. Also, the parking is absolutely disgraceful. Don't pay for the $300 parking permit.... you will never find a spot and when your inevitably late for class, your professor will tell you to come earlier. Even though you drove through 5 lots for 20 minutes. Absolute money grab.Update: Recent discovery that even if you purchased their joke of a parking permit, if somehow the sticker falls off your windshield you will still get a ticket and be expected to pay it even with proof of a permit. Pathetic. Bumped down to one star from two.

Really not a great school, they overspend on and cherish certain department, while completely screwing over others. The administration as a whole seems like a joke, and most of the places I've gone to get help on stuff have generally just made it worse. Poor class choices and layout, I had to go a whole extra school year because of this, not being able to get into classes I needed, or simply because my conselor didn't let me know I needed to take certain steps to be able to graduate, I have two classes I really need to take left. But it is required I take them in seperate semesters, so here I am paying another full year for something I should be able to do in one, or if it was a functional system I would have known about it way before now.. Go bulldogs

Bit of a mixed bag. If you're here for geology it's one of the best schools thanks to the location. The communication department is also really good. Some teachers are really mediocre and others will blow you away. Campus culture is mostly do your own thing as long as you don't go too overboard. You got people who might go a bit too far with racist statements, and those who think the end of the world is upon us because someone said it. Basically typical college experience. Mostly people are nice but passive aggressive. The biggest concern is this school has taken on fairly extremist views about only white people being racist and what not. Beyond that I haven't run into many crazies here. We have an active college republican club that's respected and not hateful. I personally am not republican but if you are you're still accepted. People are very accepting of edgy jokes here just be an adult about keeping it to your friends and not post it to the geo location of the campus. So honestly it depends on what you're looking for in a campus. Compared to most it's one of the better campuses in I'd say the nation, especially compared to the twin cities campus. If you do decide to go here though, I think you'll find something for yourself. We have every kind of group you can think of. And yet there's no fighting, only discussion. Teachers who care about your well being. We also have a great health department. I personally suggest giving this college a try. If you don't like it, no hard feelings.
