Unique Opportunities
The E* Trade Financial Learning Center provides students with a unique classroom environment:
a real-time, simulated trading and financial center where they have the opportunity to learn about the principles of investing and money management and replicate real-world situations.

Campus Life and Student Activities
Two new residence halls, open in the fall 2006, will help to meet the growing student demand for a 24-hour a day, 7-day a week campus experience. The expansion of residential spaces on campus is part of the creation of a learning village where student interaction, creativity, and community-building continues throughout the day and evening, inside and outside of the classroom.

Arts and Culture
The High Mountain Symphony represents an exciting collaboration of musical talent drawn from the University’s faculty artists and gifted student instrumentalists in performance with established metropolitan-area professional musicians.
