[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in Gainesville. I see plenty of Asians around town that attend UF, UF for grad school, and UF for medical school etc. UF is the top college in Florida.[/quote] A little off topic- but what is Gainesville like? UF is my kids top choice right now but waiting on Ivy Day (which will most likely be a rejection for 95% of us) before committing. [/quote] It is a youthful town. Our community college alone has around 30,000 students. Most UF students find their friend niches. It is an extremely diverse campus and college community. Like the other SEC colleges there is strong school spirit. Women's sports bring out large crowds. Lady Gator Gymnastics meets typically get attendance numbers of 12,000 or more each meet. Lady Gator volleyball also brings out large attendance crowds. Since the murders of the 1990's there is a very strong safety culture on the campus. I'm a senior citizen female and I feel safe on campus in the evenings walking to events. The chief of campus police is a female lesbian and the highest paid in this role in the State of Florida. The main negative is flights in and out of Gainesville. Their are non stop flights to Miami otherwise you have to change planes in Atlanta or Charlotte. Otherwise you can fly into Jacksville (preferred) or Orlando (I try not to do this.) [/quote]
