Why UD?: I went to a public high school and wanted the opportunity to combine my faith with my education at a private school, and of course, the people were so amazingly nice compared to the other universities. I hate to do it, but here comes the cliche term used to explain what UD has that no one else does...community. Plus your classes are small, where the professors normally not only know your name, but a lot more about you, which is very rare at the college level!
