Welcome to Campus: Here's What's New
The newly redesigned web site will help you find your way around UNL.edu much easier. We also have a new UNL Children's Center to take care of our babies and preschoolers while we're busy at work and study. As you will see, construction continues on the new residence hall at 17th and R streets, the physics building at 16th and W, and on the Gaughan Multicultural Center adjacent to the Nebraska Union.
New in the headlines is UNL's ranking in the U.S. News and World Report annual college evaluation. UNL for the sixth straight year listed in the top 50 of Public National Universities (at number 43), and in the top 100 of all U.S. colleges and universities (at number 96).
