• Innovative faculty, like Dr. Mickey Gunter, for whom the newly discovered mineral, Gunterite, is named
• Our law program being named 13th among 200 law schools for "Top Law Schools for Clinical Opportunities"
• The ability to offer the only doctorate in athletic training in the nation
• More Vandal student-athletes receiving the Stan Bates Award than any other school in the Western Athletic Conference (WAC)
