UNL students and UNL as a whole generally has something going on at any given moment. Every other week is often has a weeklong theme with programs and things for students interested in said theme. Husker sports are a very big part of this school. Husker Football home games will dominate Saturdays in the Fall, basketball and volleyball are very well-supported, and intramural sports are also popular.
The campus has a lot of outdoor volleyball and basketball courts and a lot of nice, turfed fields. The recreation center was recently remodeled, and there is plenty to do there if a student likes working out.
Outside of campus, Lincoln has a wide variety of things to do. There's a great nightlife at the Haymarket downtown, great restaurants, movie theaters, and a few shopping malls close by.
The University offers several housing options to undergraduate students, from the rich diversity of our residence halls to the more self-reliant environment of apartment-style living.
If a student is looking to meet people, the living style in traditional halls is a great way to make new friends. Traditional halls feature two-person rooms with community bathrooms including private shower/toilet areas that are cleaned daily by Housing staff. A 5– or 7–day unlimited meal plan, in-room refrigerator/freezer and independent control over heat and air conditioning are a few traditional hall amenities.
In suite-style there are two types of rooms – double bedroom, which are designated for freshmen students, and single bedroom units for upperclassmen. Suite-style features a living room area, snack-prep area with a full sized refrigerator and microwave, sink and countertop area, as well as private in-suite showers and vanities.
Residence halls are single occupancy rooms designed for upperclassmen, graduate students or non-traditional freshman (resident 20 years of age or older with a freshman classification) ready for a more independent living environment.
All freshmen must live on the school’s campus in downtown Lincoln and can bring cars if they wish.
UNL career services gives students a one-stop start for job vacancies (business, government/internships), job seeking tips, career information, employer information, and campus interviews. Career services will try to simplify the maze and direct students to the "best" resources as well as provide an effective starting point to other specialized resources.

Around the turn of the 20th century, the university began to expand significantly, hiring professors from eastern schools to teach in the newly organized professional colleges while also producing groundbreaking research in agricultural sciences. The University of Nebraska established the world’s first undergraduate psychology laboratory. The discipline of ecology was born here, and the campuses reflect that tradition, being recognized as botanical gardens and arboreta.
An early institutional interest in literature and the arts provided the foundations for today’s Prairie Schooner literary magazine, for the University of Nebraska Press, and for the Sheldon Museum of Art, which houses one of the world’s most significant collections of 20th century American art.
