Tulane Students Say....”Students describe their learning environment as “vibrant and culturally diverse,”and one which fosters “a culture of collaborative academic success.” Many of Tulane’s “profoundly knowledgeable” faculty members “are not only incredible instructors, but are interesting and insightful people,” and students say “our classes are small and engaging, encouraging us to develop personal relationships with professors.” Looking toward the future, students say that professors have helped them “so many important connections” for jobs. Students maximize their location in New Orleans, “one of the greatest strengths of Tulane,” too: “There are so many opportunities available outside the classroom—from student organizations,to community service projects, internships, events happening in New Orleans.” Indeed, the Tulane and New Orleans experiences are inseparable, and this ethos motivates the fact that Tulane is “the only major research institution in the nation with a public service requirement for graduation.” Tulane's student body comes from origins near and far: "Tulane is the most geographically diverse school in the country-something like 80 percent of our students come from over 300-plus miles away and the average distance traveled is like 800 miles." Its undergraduates are proud of this diversity, saying that "no matter your race, religion, gender, or background, you will have many like-minded friends that accept you." Embracing the school's slogan of "Only at Tulane, only in New Orleans," students are eager to take advantage of "one of the most culturally stimulating cities in the world" and "can't express how much I love" living "in a city that loves to celebrate-no reason required."
