By checking out the University of Michigan's College Prowler guide, you'll find answers to the questions the University hasn't yet answered-student opinions that have never been filtered by the University admission's office.

Campus Housing: "I'd avoid Bursley and Baits like the plague. They're on North Campus, and that's a 10-15 minute bus ride from Central Campus (where practically everything is). North Campus is like Canada: It's our friendly neighbor to the North. Most people never go up there unless they absolutely have to, or because they got stuck living there as freshmen."

Guys and Girls: "The highest concentration of hot girls is in the Greek system. Some houses are almost 100 percent blonde, others are all beautiful dark-haired chicks. The spring is the best time of year here. It's when all the hot girls come out from hibernation."

Local Atmosphere: "Our campus is cool because it is intertwined with the city almost seamlessly. The people of Ann Arborrespect the school and the students, and everyone here has so much energy. The city is very intellectual in nature, and Ann Arbor residents are very intelligent and educated."

Nightlife: "There are a few really good bars right on campus such as Rick's, Good Time Charley's, and Scorekeepers, but be prepared to need an ID."
