Everybody was very friendly and opened doors for us. The permanent art gallery collection is worth a close look. The Kegg mineralogy museum is fantastic.
With right at 20,000 students, UNR is not only "THE University" in Nevada (older and larger than UNLV), but it's one of the few state universities considered a "tier one" school. With a major commitment to research and a reducing student-faculty ratio, the university promises to increase its "creme de la creme" ranking. The personal interest that faculty and administration take towards motivated, involved students is exceptional. UNR also has strong community outreach programs that make it a real asset to Reno and Nevada. Further, the campus and its facilities are both beautiful and top notch.
Well worth looking/touring the campus, simply beautiful. From the Quad to the Knowledge Center everything is worth viewing.
Beatiful campus, friendly informative staff. We had visited before and this time were here to drop her off.
I study now in this University and is a good place. It's so big and beautiful. If you want study here it's great, but I think it isn't really touristic
We have enjoyed visiting the University of Nevada at Reno Campus. We have gone to their football stadium there to watch a football game - actually we were lucky enough that time to see Colin Kapernick play. He was stellar that day; he is now the quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers. Nice stadium.Most recently (July 2014) we visited the campus and went to the WW Keck Museum - a very good geological museum on the campus.Its a beautiful campus with a lot of trees - just north (walkable distance) from the downtown Reno casino area.We have also had a relative graduate from this campus.
This school has it all and then some. Lots of construction going on, the place is really growing. Student art is all over the campus, which suggests a strong, integrated art department. Lots of history too. The school has all the latest & greatest, including 2 3D printers (which i had never seen until now). Perfectly located for access to Tahoe and ski resorts. Lots of school spirit. This place was a big surprise and an undiscovered gem of a university. My daughter and her friend really liked it. I would be happy to send my child here for a first-class education.
The UNR is a great college. We toured the Dorms and Facilities at the college. Their is a new dorm building being built near the college which is awesome. Loved the Wolf Den, the food was outstanding.
My son just moved into the dorms and is a freshman at the university. It is a beautiful campus and I'm so excited for him as he begins this next phase in his life. I'm impressed by the staff during move-in and I loved their Opening Ceremony.
3 years ago we started a search with our son for the university he would attend. The other campus we visited did not compare to UNR. From the buildings to the backdrop of mountains and downtown Reno, this place is gorgeous. Oh and did I mention it is a Tier I, DI school? Run with Pack!!!!
