What is the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee like?

I'm waiting for the letter right now to see if I got in. They seemed pretty interested considering they called my school when they got a transcript that wasn't filled out right. Whats the film program like? Are dorms nice? Do they have a Gay-Straight Alliance type club? anything else you want to tell me would be greatly appreciated. oh, and i live in minnesota

The Film program in the Peck School of the Arts is a growing power that, at the bachelor's degree level, has three inter-related tracks: Film/Video/New Genres, Conceptual Studies in Media Arts Production, and Photography. Rob Yeo is the department chairperson and is well-respected on campus. Contact him if you have any specific questions (or just want to start to get to know the faculty on staff). The on-campus dorms date back a few decades, but are extremely well maintained (my son lived there from 06-08). The four towers are like a small town with its own movie theater, convenience store, and workout room. The off-campus dorms are a little more than a mile away from campus, served by shuttles 24 hours a day. One opened in January 2008 and the other opens in Fall 2010. The UWM LGBT Resource Center is very active and works with other organizations across campus.
