"I wanted a University with a close community feel, and I really found that at Lakehead! It offers a very pleasant university experience where you make a lot of friends very easily. Classes are great too because Lakehead's class sizes are smaller than other universities, so as an individual you are more engaged in the lectures. I find the professors are also very helpful. They are genuinely interested in the success of their students, and encourage questions before, during or after lectures in order to ensure everyone has a thorough understanding of the material. At Lakehead university, you are not just a number!
My favourite study spot is a cubicle in the library where I am able to study in silence. However, I recently found the larger group tables in the library to be useful in order to go over certain topics with classmates.
When I am not in class or studying in the library, I like to go out with friends. My favourite hang out, would have to be the Outpost; it has a large projection TV screen so it is a great place to watch a game or have a delicious lunch."
