    Since I was introduced to this school on a field trip from Waterbury, CT, I didn't know what to expect. I heard it was a horrible school, it wasn't friendly, kind of dangerous, and had barely any school activities. Well, that was half correct. When me and the rest of party arrived at the gates of UNH, we saw that most of the school was sunder construction. I figured it was because of the tax payer's money. The Tour guide for our scheduled meeting came and said the reasoning for the school's construction. He said it wasn't from tax payer's money, but from the budget plan they set years ago and raised 10 million from fundraising. With that money they raised a new recreation center, improved housing, and a whole variety of upgrades from their efforts. You can see the videos that are posted of Cappex about their recent additions. It's very advanced, and impressive.

    I LOVE UNH. when i first went to this school, being an african american i was scared that there wasnt going to be any diversity, but boy was i wrong there are plenty types of people here and numerous different clubs so whatever you like or your interested in there's a club for that ! and if not they have no problem with you starting one.
