University of Missouri

Racist faculty and administration. Not a stable environment for higher learning. they seem to be more concerned with calling Black people racial slurs

Loved going to school here. The town is a wonderful and always changing. The campus is large and beautiful, with varying scenery both old and new. Mizzou you rock!

Friend goes here. Clean campus and her experience has been pretty good.

My daughter will be starting school here in August 2012 so it’s hard to predict the final results. I’ll update the review in 10 — 15 years.
With that said the campus is nothing short of beautiful. Kudos to the Board of Trustees and all for achieving this result. Impressive.
I also love the attitude of the people on the campus and at Mizzou — wonderful. Not saying the people of Chicago ain’t friendly — but here people are smiling and laughing all the time. How nice!

Old Missouri, Fair Missouri, Dear Old Varsity. Ours are hearts that fondly love thee, here’s a health to thee.
Just a little snippet of Mizzou’s alma mater definitely expresses how I feel about the one, the only, University of Missouri. A proud graduate of Class of 2003, I am and always will be a True Tiger. Living in South Florida, I don’t get to travel back to Columbia as often as I’d like, but when I do, a stroll through campus — red and white — is definitely mandated. It’s impressive to see the renovations to the older buildings, the new buildings coming up, and all the exciting things Mizzou has to offer.
There’s nothing better than staring down the Quad at the Columns, with Jesse Hall standing proudly in the background. I took it all for granted when I was a young undergrad, but on return visits, I have grown to appreciate every moment.
Mizzou continues to grow by leaps and bounds, and every year continues to churn out the best and the brightest. And with the move to the SEC conference, us fans living deep in SEC territory will be able to get our fill of Mizzou’s football and basketball games on national (or regional) networks. What’s not to love about that?!
I’ll forever sport the black and gold with pride, and will teach young and old the best cheer around — M-​I-​Z! … Z-​O-​U!!!

Gorgeous campus and wonderful people

A great Institution of Education! A public Ivy! Nice environment for study & high achieving Educators! Great student buildings & facilities. The Best School West of the Mississippi! I am an Alumni & would recommend this School to anyone wanting build character & become the Best! Go Mizzou!

Well, I don’t know if I’m qualified to give a thorough review yet, but the campus seems nice enough. Columbia is an interesting mid-​sized, midwest college town. So far, it’s quiet and the people are friendly enough. The students are gone, so I’m not sure how that will all change in a week.
I see that someone complained about the lack of personal attention. I can say already that that isn’t necessarily the case in the business school. They go out of there way to welcome students and make sure they know about the available resources. I do agree though that big universities may be a bit off-​putting for some. As an undergraduate, you have to seek out resources and connections. I feel like there are definitely more opportunities at big universities, but it does take a lot of initiative on the part of the student.
As for the review from Jess S. BOOO!
Puts Urbana-​Champaign to shame?
Ha ha, just kidding, well sort of.
I’m a University of Illinois alum, and I don’t know about it being way better than Champaign.
It does seem like a fun place so far though.

I can’t speak about the academics but this campus is gorgeous. Clean and well-​maintained. The student amenities are insane (i.e. the rec center). Beautiful old buildings. Gotta love the Columns.
Puts my old stomping grounds to shame (that would be the University of Illinois-​Urbana-​Champaign).

I just have to give 5 stars because they employed both of my parents for over 30 years. Thanks to that, I was exposed to a ton of international students, food, fun & frolic, not to mention departmental politics (appropriate for the Poli Sci department, no?!).
And 5 stars b/​c their wages have financed so much for me!
Go Mizzou…

I had a great experience attending school here. Most of my professors were great, and I learned a lot. The campus is beautiful, and there is a wide variety of majors available. In-​state tuition is very reasonable, out of state a little harder to swallow, but if you can stay in MO for a summer they’ll give you in-​state tuition. Overall, a great place to learn. Go Tigers!
