George Washington University Provides One

George Washington University provides one of the most complete and holistic experiences available to a university student. The geographic location of the university allows it to be accessible to the leadership atmosphere of the capitol and yet maintain a cozy environment for the pursuit of academic excellence. As a perused, the website of the university I was delighted with the richness of the proposed experience and overwhelmed by the academic pantheon of the scholastic achievement of the faculty.

The Washington DC is home to the nation's capital. The capital is a place of rich American heritage and culture. The buildings capture the boldness of American talent and ingenuity. They are also a source of pristine inspiration and hope. These elements find their way into the University. The university has absorbed freely from the surrounding environment and the resulting creation is a location where the creation and accusation of knowledge is prized. The atmosphere is inundated interchangeably with the fresh zephyrs of hope and the blustery winds of change. This is the place for a budding academic to engage minds and drink freely of the future promise.

The stated mission of the university is to "provide an environment where…creative endeavors seek to enrich the experiences of the global society." This global focus of the university is very appealing. It suggests that there is a deliberate attempt to provide students with the opportunities to access skills and knowledge that will prepare them to live and excel throughout the world. This posture is not simply commendable but in combination with the ability to execute this vision, it constitutes a critical feature that separates this university from others of a similar standing. I am confident that this university produces excellent graduates.

To ensure that excellence is maintained throughout the multiplicity of the offerings at the university, an innovative curriculum is matched with faculty with "exceptional qualifications and experiences." The faculty possesses expertise in addressing current issues and not simply historical or archaic problems. This assures the students at George Washington are relevant and cutting edge. Success in the new dispensation requires that individuals are not only knowledgeable but also knowledgeable in postmodern phenomena. This experience is cultivated and sponsored at George Washington.

The campus life at the University is remarkable. This is the result of the integration of the university with the life and atmosphere of Washington, D.C. One of the tantalizing features of the Mount Vernon Campus is the wooded acreage on which the Campus sits. The university has woven a tapestry of revitalizing green amidst the buildings and halls. This balance provides a serene environment for study and restfulness when necessary. The proximity of the university to city life also allows students to participate in the events of the capital. This particular option holds great excitement for me, as it will allow me to engage the community for projects and other activities of interest.
