Morning at the University of Nebraska at Kearney dawns with the tolling of the carillon bells. A green, sun-filled lawn greets students walking to classes on a bright spring morning. Among these 7,600 students are more than 330 Honors Students hurrying to informational lectures and to hands-on laboratory experiences. UNK' s 400 faculty members excel in delivering a sound liberal arts education. And, education at UNK extends well beyond the classroom.
Faculty members take great pride in the amount of time they devote to students outside class.
Afternoon at UNK offers a variety of activities. On a typical afternoon, many of them may be found in the library or in laboratories where they carry out individual research projects. Some work from their residence hall rooms via the campus computing network. The Museum of Nebraska Art in downtown Kearney and two galleries on campus provide excellent aesthetic experiences for students and visitors. Other students may participate in athletic events, rehearse for a musical concert or take part in the activities offered by the campus' 152 student organizations.
