University of Nebraska���Omaha offers its students ���a quality education at an affordable price.��� Standout academic offerings include ���a hidden gem��� of a business school, ���the only exclusively dedicated Center for Afghanistan Studies in the nation,��� and ���a huge information technology program.��� All disciplines, but especially the business program, are ���focused on maximizing the student���s employability after graduation.��� Students here take a cue from hometown hero ���Warren Buffet���s no-nonsense basics-first business ideology,��� meaning that some of the results-oriented ���students here seem less concerned with scholarship and academics, and more concerned with the amount of money they will make when they graduate.��� Nontraditional students find a home here. As one junior writes, ���all of my professors have been extremely willing to work with me when work and family conflict with my school schedule. My advisor and professors have been almost a cheering squad when I have been so overwhelmed that I am ready to give up on my education to pay the bills.��� As teachers, professors are a mixed bag. ���Many of them are actively doing research and being published in their area of study. That provides the students with excellent lessons and lectures based on the professor���s experience.��� Then there are those ���who are just bad teachers.��� Interestingly enough, ���Not only are the students well aware of it but so are other teachers. Some professors will [even] sit down with you and suggest who you should take��存o you can get the most out of the class.��� Despite the praise for an advisor quoted above, many other students complain of ���poor advising.��� Parking is also a problem, though ���they are working on [this] by building parking structures.���

���There are two types of students��� at UNO. First, you have ���typical college-age student ranging from 18���22 years old��� in addition to the ���many ���non traditional��� students who are older adults.��� Many are ���middle-class,��� ���white,��� ���Christian��� ���conservatives��� who come from Omaha itself, and those ���not from Omaha still tend to come from around Nebraska or the immediate geographical region like western Iowa.��� ���The state of Nebraska as a whole is not diverse. So thankfully UNO is a diverse campus when compared to the state.��� That means that ���There aren���t a lot of sideways glances going around��吆because] even the ���atypical��� students are pretty typical compared to larger cities.��� Still, UNO is not completely lacking in variety, as there are ���a lot of international students to counter this.���

From a social perspective, UNO is your ���pretty typical midtown city commuter campus college.��� ���Lots of people are working and going to school full time,��� so ���most students just care about going to class and getting off campus as quickly as possible,��� though there is a growing population of students living on-campus. In an effort to offer a more traditional college experience, the school is ���building several new dorms as part of the new ���Center Street Campus��� project.��� But you can expect traditional college pastimes at UNO. For example, ���If you love sports, Division I hockey games against schools like Michigan and Ohio State in sold-out arenas may suit you. If the size of the crowd doesn���t matter, the football, soccer, volleyball and basketball teams are consistently top-notch.��� So while ���The campus feel doesn���t hit you directly in the face, like at many other colleges��夷f you get involved with student organizations or activities, you���ll feel it.��� Off-campus, ���there is a very large bar scene here in Omaha,��� and ���partying is big here. The weekends are crazy.��� One common, if somewhat unexpected, complaint is that there is ���a lot of smoking in the open areas.��� ���We can���t get around it,��� says a student.
