           Iowa State University is a land-grant school located in Ames. We can mention some notable people of  the university: George Washington Carver (inventor and professor at the ISU), Nawal El Moutawakel (famous Moroccan athlete,ISU graduate, she obtained a diploma in physical education) and Carrie Chapman Catt (women's rights activist, ISU graduate). The ISU is known for its competence in science and technology since it has produced a number of astronauts and scientists. It also has a good reputation in the economic field with its Business College. The ISU is an enormous campus with a gigantic library. It is surrounded by more than 160 buildings and residence halls. Throughout the campus you can find a lake: the Lake LaVerne and Nature's beauty (flowers, bird songs and green space).
        
          Iowa State University is a culturally diverse student body from all 50 states and more than 110 countries. Education fees average for people in-state is 8,000 USD a year and for strangers or people out of state is estimated up to 21,000 USD per year. The university motto is : CHOOSE YOUR ADVENTURE. You can find over there  different ethnic groups (African Americans, Hispanic and Latinos, Asians and Arabs). The university has more than 33,000 students including nearly 4,000 international students, the students represent nearly one half of the city's population. International students are welcomed and social life on campus is very kind. International students can attend parties, events for social integration and be members of the ISU Recreation Program. It is a low cost program which allows them to build up friendships, overcome challenges,
travel to beautiful destinations and enjoy lifelong outdoor activities. There are several social organizations of fraternity and sorority with annual events organized by students such as the VEISHEA Festival. Students usually meet at popular places such as the Reiman Gardens, the Memorial Union, the Campanille (the most photographed structure of the university) and the dominant landscape, the 20-acre central lawn, reserved as a beautiful space for students to study, relax, and socialize.
