Capital University
This tightly knit university has just under 4,000 students, and was founded by the Evangelical Lutheran Church in 1830. It is one of the largest Lutheran affiliated universities in the nation, and offers 60 majors and 39 minors over a wide range of fields of study.
Columbus, home city to Capital University, was named the 8th best large city to live in by Money Magazine, due to a wide variety of factors such as a diversified industry, wide range of activities and focuses, and fairly low crime rates. Most graduate employment opportunities are in healthcare, insurance, retail, technology and education.
The area around Capital University ranks 89 out of 100 for walkability - one of the best scores outside of the big three cities (New York, LA and Chicago) anywhere in the nation. Bars and restaurants abound within a quarter mile of school, and there are nearby grocery stores, clothing shops, bookstores, fitness centers and drug stores also.
Bikes and Nature - Columbus Community Events
Festivals and community events abound in the Columbus area, and will appeal to a wide range of interests. From fast custom bikes at Deepest BikeFest, to the Annual Nature Loving Festival and the Annual Hip Hop Fest, there is something for everyone.
Columbus also sees big names like Billy Joel and Elton John, Counting Crows, Offspring, Chicago and Disco Biscuits at its major arenas.

Capital University is located just to the east of the city proper, and while there are quite a few dining and nightlife options close to school (Drexel Radio Café, Wing's Restaurant, TT Murph's and Leipzig Haus among them), Columbus CBD is where the big names are at.
If it's a break from cafeteria food you're after, Creole Café and Black Creek Bistro are both in the center of town, and serve delicious American style cuisine, from old favorites to Cajun-spiced amazingly fanciful dishes.
Nightlife is better in the center of town too - Carabar gets rave reviews, and Diva Den and the Old Bag of Nails Pub are usually packed.
