University of Nevada-Reno: A diamond in the rough?

Mon, 28 May 2001 03:48:09 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dtshaver - The University of Nevada, Reno, is an oft-overlooked school in Northern Nevada. It has to live in the collective shadows of California's higher education system.

While the student body is a times homogenized, the University has a diverse...

University of Nevada-Reno: Manzanita Hall: Quiet, Historical and Slightly Boring

Mon, 11 Dec 2000 00:25:03 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Shanbrite22 - I have lived in Manzanita Hall for the past year and a half and it has been my experience that if you are looking for an all-women's dorm, with an emphasis on studies, this is the place to go. Since it is over 100 years-old, there is more history to it...

University of Nevada-Reno: Food Conspiracy at UNR

Tue, 27 Jun 2000 15:19:45 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author RDavisUNR - The 1999 through 2000 school year was my first experience with the UNR food program. I must say that I love the way it is set up. Meal plans consist of a certain number of meals that can be used at the Dinning commons plus a limited amount of cash that...

University of Nevada-Reno: Love This Time of Year

Tue, 6 Jun 2000 10:35:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author writer - I got the chance to walk around on campus not too long ago, and whenever I get the chance to do that, I'm reminded of what a beautiful campus we enjoy. When I have to run errands on campus, I always try to circle around Manzanita Lake, through the quad,...

University of Nevada-Reno: Good Alternative to CSU

Sun, 19 Mar 2000 02:17:23 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author msporter - Since I grew up in the Bay Area, it was assumed that I would attend either a UC (University of California) or CSU (California State University) after high school. Frankly, my grades were not high enough for me to get accepted to a UC. I could have...

University of Nevada-Reno: UNR is a great school

Sun, 13 Feb 2000 23:54:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author scottcolson - I'm a graduate from UNR twice, and my wife is a graduate also. I graduated in 1994 with a B.S. in Pre-Med, 1999 from the medical school with my M.D., and my wife graduated in 1997 with a B.S.N. (Nursing). I think we both had an excellent educational...

University of Nevada-Reno: New Food Service Isn't as Good!

Sat, 5 Feb 2000 20:31:49 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author writer - The food service when Marriott ran Cafe 10-0-1 was MUCH better!!! The arrangement of the food buffett itself was easier to access, and there was a bigger choice of items. Now, the cold cuts only have one or two choices, but they spread them out over a...
