The University of Alabama is a university filled with pride and tradition, brought on by its focus on promoting not only a strong academic environment but also successful athletic teams, most notably its football team. ‘Bama’s football team, The Crimson Tide, has achieved the title of national champion more than any other division 1 school (13 claimed since 1892). The institution fosters a great level of school spirit with one of the largest football stadiums in the United States (fifth), seating over 100,000 fans. It is no doubt that for a die-hard Crimson Tide fan, this is the place to be as the school spirit resounds throughout campus and Tuscaloosa.

What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?The worst thing about UA is the vision of our upper administration. Our president keeps expanding enrollment and trying to pack over 28,000 students on this campus. This is too big. When I first arrived here enrollment was around 21,000 or so; currently there are over 24,000 and it feels cramped already. Meal plans can only be used 5 locations where it used to be accepted at over 10.,What’s the most frustrating thing about your school?Again its fighting against the vision of our upper administration.
