What does it mean to be a Loper? It's different. Lopers are involved and connected, and actively taking part in their learning.
At UNK, students support each other. We make each other feel accepted and included. Often, people know your name and smile and wave as you walk by. That’s the UNK difference.
Be proactive. There are more than 150 active student organizations at UNK.
