Big Picture

Auburn is beautiful. It's a great Southern school. HUGE football school. Big greek system, where everyone is really involved. There is a lot of school pride and southern hospitality. Mostly everyone is very kind and generous, big on saying hello or "war eagle" to just anybody. In recent events (Lauren Burk tragedy) the campus has become much more protected. I see around 2-3 cops on campus when walking to a class. We also have escorts and buses to transport students at anytime during the day to where ever they need to go.It's a small town, easy to get around. Overall just a really respectable, fun, wonderful school.

Academic Life

My major is Apparel Design in the Human Sciences college. Human Sciences is a wonderful college. Everyone is very helpful and it is very close knit. I have had the same classes with the same people since freshman year so you kind of feel like a team getting through all of you classes together. Professors in my college are willing to help with whatever you need, classes are fun but you must study. Just like any other college, it depends on what kind of student you are but everyone has to study to get through. We have the second largest library in the nation. It is always packed but by far the best place to get stuff done. You would usually be able to find someone in your class there if you ever had a question. It is open 24 hours during exams.

Student Body

Pretty religious student body. A lot of students are involved in Impact, Younglife, etc. Also a very conservative student body. It is a southern school so majority of the students are very republican and supportive of conservative views. We are pretty big on greek life. You will see a lot of students wearing a sorority or fraternity t-shirt to class. Everyone is very casual during the day but at night we dress up to go out. Auburn has very attractive, well-mannered kids. Most students are from Alabama or Georgia with the rest of the majority coming from Tennessee and Florida. Alot of students drive nice cars, wear nice clothes, etc. It is obviously because of how they were raised. They don't tend to flash it around though, I think most students are pretty modest.
