Nebraska'll Getcha
And getcha it will at the University of Nebraska Lincoln, a school devoted to thorough research. The discovery side of the largest "Wolly Mammoth" fossil, Lincoln Country, Nebraska is a hotbed for findings of all shapes and sizes. Maybe it's in the soil! You'll have no excuse not to study with more than seven libraries on campus. University of Nebraska Lincoln's most notable graduate departments include the College of Law and the College of Education. When you're done bulking up your brain, work those muscles at the University's weight room (taking up three-fourths of an acre it's the largest in the country!)
Lincoln Lodgings
Hold on to your hats, kids, you’re living in the second most-populated city in Nebraska; stick your flag in the sand and stake a claim on a place to live fast. Nicknamed “Star City,” you’ll be blinded by the lights of Pershing Auditorium or lulled by the blues at Zoo Bar before you even get your foot in the door of a housing rental agency. So hop to it, you Huskers. Check out the amenities of various places listed on this site—some not only have on-site laundry (a must if you don't want to spend hours in the laundromat), but free DVD libraries. If you're an architecture nut, keep your eyes peeled for apartments built in chic antebellum styles. The possiblities are endless, once you've left the dorms.
Loving Lincoln
Get out your picnic blanket and spend a day in the sun at Sunken Gardens, a little oasis in the middle of town. If you’re a plant lover, you’ll be lovin’ all over Lincoln. View a full list of gardens in Lincoln here. If you're a crafty one, you'll enjoy the International Quilt Study Center & Museum. It's the largest collection of quilts in the world! That's a lotta stitchin'. When you're done counting quilts, check out the Governor’s Mansion, if only to see the doll collections of the state's first ladies (weird). If you prefer your beer in a jar, head to The Alley. For late nights, outdoor seating, and college kids, stop by The Bar.
