The University of Wisconsin, Eau Claire is a mid-sized institution situated on the Chippewa River in the northwestern portion of the state. Predominantly an undergraduate school, the university is renowned as one of the top colleges in the region for both value and quality of education. Students participate in unique annual traditions that draw inspiration from earlier historical periods, including the Medieval-themed Madrigal Dinner and the 19th century Viennese Ball. The neighborhoods surrounding the UWEC campus contain some highly affordable apartments and houses within easy walking distance of the university, while the area across the Chippewa River features more upscale living arrangements closer to the popular nightlife and dining hotspots. Eau Claire’s historic Water Street is a major hangout for the campus crowd, with an extensive collection of restaurants, coffee shops, bars, and nightclubs right across the river from the university. Downtown Eau Claire is only a few blocks farther north, and offers a high-class selection of restaurants and cocktail bars. Being only ninety minutes from Minneapolis, you can easily hit the road for a day or a weekend in one of the Midwest’s biggest and most exciting cities.
