University of Groningen

marcelus in response to ianis's question: I just moved to Groningen with my family and I shall study at the local university. What is the atmosphere there? (give a different answer) .

I'm a student at Groningen in my third year...I am content with my studies and I think I will settle here. Like all large universities (this one is the second largest and oldest of The Netherlands, built in 1614), there is a continuous to and fro move on the lobbies, enough international students, huge yard with fresh grass to sit on during the breaks... The university is actually conveying an upbeat, irreverent air to the entire city because of the student culture.
