    The campus is beautiful with the big brick buildings all over campus and the green grassy front lawn where students socialize and play sports. It is also a campus you can feel safe at, because as a student body, we look out for each other. Its a very positive environment. The only reason this isn't five star is because if you do not have a car, there is not much you can do off campus because almost every restaurant and movie theater is about a 5-10 minute drive from campus. However, you will find a family at Anderson University and there are fun activities on campus that help you to bond with other AU Trojans. read full review
