Best of SIUC: The best part of SIUC I feel is the campus. The campus is so pretty in every season, I love how the trees look. In the winter when it does snow they glisten with snow. In the spring the flowers that grow on the trees are so adorable. In the summer they are a nice green color and in the fall the leaves turn all different types of autumn colors
Advice to New Students: The most important advice I can offer incoming students is to attend classes even when you don't always want to. If you don't you might miss something very important that might be on a test or quiz.
