Incheon, South Korea
Expand your Horizons by Chelsea Sather
Are you interested in studying abroad?
Did you know that the University of Utah has a global campus? In 2014, the University of Utah opened an Asia campus in South Korea. This campus makes it even easier for Utah students to extend their studies internationally.
Where is it located?
The University of Utah was one of the founding institutions of the Incheon Global Campus (IGC) in Incheon, South Korea. The area of Incheon that the campus is located is in Songdo, which is a manmade island connected by bridge to the rest of Korea. The Utah Asia Campus shares a global campus community with The State University of New York, George Mason University, and Ghent University. Facilities on-campus include music rooms, various event halls, a sports complex, a library, and a pool. You are a ten-minute walk from a subway stop that can take you to other areas of Korea, such as Seoul. In Seoul there are historical landmarks, palaces, museum exhibitions, shopping, and various other attractions.
What majors are offered at the Utah Asia Campus?
Any University of Utah student is eligible to study at the Utah Asia Campus. The majors offered include undergraduate majors in Communication, Psychology, Film & Media Arts, and Urban Ecology The graduate programs offered are a Master of Biomedical Informatics and a Master of Public Health. Students who start their education at the Utah Asia Campus are required to spend two semesters in Salt Lake City to complete their degree. Fall of 2017 the Union Programming Council went global, adding a programming board to the Utah Asia Campus. During our first two years of programming on the Asia campus UPC hosted Earth Week, Pride Week, a movie night, and a dance party open to all institutions on the global campus. We are excited to see programming continue on the Asia campus and hope you all get a chance to visit during your time at the University of Utah.

FIRST YEAR INVOLVEMENT by Austin Matsuura
The University of Utah is full of endless opportunities, academic and extracurricular alike. Although college is geared towards higher education, there are many other things to take away from these next four years. First-year involvement is one of the most crucial parts of your college career, because it opens doors to bigger and better opportunities that you wouldn’t have had access to before. For first-years, the involvement opportunities are endless. You get to pick from over 300 different clubs and student organizations here on campus. Some are even geared towards incoming first-years: • FYC is a part of our student government of campus known as ASUU. They handle many technical aspects for student organizations here on campus as well as plan occasional events. • The Bennion Center is located in the Union if you are interested in community service and volunteering. Every student organization and graduate school looks at community service, so it’s a great idea to be involved in something such as Alternative Breaks through the Bennion Center. • FAB or the Freshman Ambassador Board is part of a student organization known as UPC. This board is geared towards incoming first-years who want to achieve personal and professional growth, as well as learn how to plan fun and successful events. It is a great stepping stone into student leadership, teaching you various skills to succeed around campus and in your future careers. What ever it may be, just get involved. This will make your college experience extremely rewarding as well as enjoyable. Each student organization comes with their own benefits as well, whether that be renting your books for you, a semester stipend, or paying for your tuition. The opportunities are endless. Firstyear involvement will change your college experience.

Study Spots on Campus By Breanna mears
spencer fox eccles business building In the basement of the business building there are amazing study rooms. Each wall in the room is a whiteboard so if you need a lot of writing space like me, it is the place to go. It is good to go there during finals when the Library is overpacked and it is nearly impossible to find a whiteboard.
BIOLOGY BUILDING SKYBRIDGE This is a great place to study in-between classes. The sky bridge is nice since there is sunlight coming in from all directions. It’s a convenient location to sit at for a couple of hours then head back to class or continue on with the rest of the day.
Marriott Library The library is tailored towards the study habits of all students. It’s a centralized location that’s easy to meet up with friends and study partners. It also has vending machines and snack bars for late nights. There are more quiet locations such as the study rooms on the second floor or large spaces for louder groups on the third floor. Regardless of study habits, there is a place at the library for everyone.
CROCKER SCIENCE BUILDING During the day the Crocker Science Building is one of the best places to study. Although there is limited seating in the building, it is an engaging environment. There is also the Twin Creek Cafe which offers great coffee and pastries.
Lassonde Studios No matter what hour of the day, students are here studying. Lassonde is great for students of all majors and interests. The first floor is available to all students and anyone can use the programs and tools available.
UNION BUILDING
The Union Bulding has so many great study spots to explore. With expansive windows lining the main hallway casting natural light onto all the couches, and plenty of seating in the lower levels, you’ll never want to leave. The Union also has the Crimson Commons, so when you’re done studying, you can relax your brain with a game of ping pong or pool, just to name a few activities.

Traveling and Studying! By Jennifer Mastroianni
Costa Rica, France, Italy, and Japan are only a few of the many places the University’s Learning Abroad department has programs located! In 2017 the University of Utah sent 459 students abroad and the number is only increasing each year. Learning Abroad seeks to positively impact students, the campus, and the community by fostering connections between the University of Utah and the world. We provide global education experiences to students both on and off campus, including a wide variety of signature learning opportunities through learning abroad programs world wide. We also coordinate and track international activities and programs across the University and work closely with other academic and staff organizations to make the University of Utah a truly international institution. Learning Abroad is meant to provide students with transformational academic opportunities that foster a direct interaction with other cultures and international phenomena as an essential element of their overall educational experience at the University of Utah. By working with students, faculty, administrators, and partners, we strive to support diversity, academic excellence, cultural competency, language learning, and the development of transferable skills through high quality advising, outreach, service, support, and programs.

Sustainability on Campus By Jakob Wolf
The University of Utah strives for a sustainable campus for a variety of reasons. With reasons being; creating a more inviting campus, lowering carbon emissions, and reducing plastic usage, it can sometimes be tough to know how to achieve these goals. Luckily the University of Utah offers many opportunities for both faculty and students to help sustainability become the norm on campus. One of the many ways that the University of Utah allows for a sustainable campus is through one of our special grants, the SCIF grant or Sustainable Campus Initiative Fund (SCIF) grant. The SCIF grant is what the University calls a green grant. This grant was designed to help students, faculty, staff and/or departments to propose projects that could help enhance the sustainability of the campus or community. These projects can range from any idea from reducing plastic straw use by developing a reusable straw to developing gardens that could help restore lost ecosystems within the Salt Lake area. These grants come in various monetary reward sizes that range from small all the way to large, each giving an increasing amount of money based on the grant proposal. Another way that sustainability is maintained and made accessible for the community at the U is through many of our community-service-oriented sustainability events. These events occur throughout various times of the year in both Fall and Spring semester. This allows for a variety of unique opportunities such as helping maintain the Edible Campus Garden where you can even take home fresh produce that is grown right on campus, replanting garden beds with more keystone plants to help restore local ecosystems, and much, much more. These opportunities can be further enhanced by taking multiple sustainability-oriented classes where knowledge is taught on how all of these things work. Classes such as Conservation of Biology and Intro to Environmental Science are both great introductory classes for people interested in sustainability.

Try something new for the foodie in u Written by Brooke Newhall
Gourmet Burger at Lucky 13 Pub
Try some SLC Favorites!
Let’s be honest—when it comes to food, you shouldn’t mess around. Eating is more than just satisfying hunger but having an experience with the people you go with! So stop going to the same old restaurants you always go to and try something new! In no particular order...
Ruth’s Diner: 4160 Emigration Canyon Rd, Salt Lake City, UT 84108
Classic. Ruth’s Diner has been around since the 1930s serving food 8am-10pm 7 days a week! Go back in time to this one-of-a-kind diner but make sure you go early; this hidden gem in Emigration Canyon fills up quickly! Make sure to try one of Ruth’s favorites!
Lucky 13: 135 W 1300 S, Salt Lake City, UT 84115
This is like a “we’ve been hanging out long enough you can see me eat ugly” type of place. The burgers are mammoth with a thirst-clenching flavor, the buns homemade, and the meat juicy and fresh—their burgers don’t mess around! Sorry not sorry to the youngsters—it’s a 21 and older place! There’s nothing more satisfying than a juicy burger (above) with a cold beer.
The Pie Pizzeria: 1320 E 200 S, Salt Lake City, UT 84102
Wanna pizza me? Giant pizza served with a heart attack, this greasy pizza is a campus favorite and a classic University of Utah experience! The Pie Pizzeria is not only a filling experience but is where the term Freshmen 15 came from, if you catch my drift.
Stone Ground: 249 E 400 S, Salt Lake City, UT 84111
For a more upscale dining experience, Stone Ground has awesome Italian food. The secret is to go on Sundays for their “all you can eat” pasta and pizza.
Sawadee Thai Restaurant: 754 S Temple, Salt Lake City, UT 84102
Thai food anyone? If you haven’t had Thai food before this is the place to go! The food has an incredible flavor for both spice lovers and haters. Haters gonna hate but you won’t be hatin’ Sawadee once you go! The portions are huge so there are always leftovers and who doesn’t love leftovers, especially when the leftovers still taste delicious!
Bombay House: 2731 Parleys Way, Salt Lake City, UT 84109
Are you game for spicy food? Spice up your digestive system with some Indian food! Go to an authentic Indian restaurant with five-star food and service! Bombay is hidden by the Walmart on Foothill Dr. (yes, a 24-hour Walmart hidden on Foothill Dr.)

Ichiban Sushi: 336 400 E, Salt Lake City, UT 84111
Want sushi that makes you feel like you are on the coast? Ichiban is the place for you! They have multiple locations but this one is definitely the best!
Wing Coop: 3971 Wasatch Blvd, Salt Lake City, UT 84124
Ain’t no thang like a chicken wing! Dinner for two? The Wednesday Special is 20 Wings, Two Drinks and Fries for $20! Take a friend, a special someone or someone you know will pay and grab yourself some awesome wings with “out of this world”, I can’t even, flavor.
Dolcetti Gelato: 902 E 900 S, Salt Lake City, UT 84105
Don’t stop at dinner! It’s time for dessert! Hang out at 9th and 9th and grab some gelato! They have many unique flavors; my personal favorite is their white wine gelato! Yum!
Ruby Snap Cookies: 770 300 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84101
WTF (What the frosting)?! Frosting on a cookie? Why didn’t I think of that! Oh snap! It’s a tiny shop on 3rd West. Don’t worry you can also get their cookie dough at Harmon’s grocery stores, It doesn’t include their icing and what’s a cookie without icing? Make sure to checkout their store and get a sample before deciding what cookies you want to get! I’m a sucker for their Mia cookie.
Crimson View: 200 S Central Campus Dr. (aka the Union!)
If you’re smart, you would have recognized that this address is on campus. Yes, a sit down lunch restaurant on our campus (also available for catered events in the evening)! On the top floor of the Union building, have yourself a little getaway from school and eat! As an additional plus, meal plan flex dollars are accepted here. Sometimes the best things are right where U are!

5 Quick tips to financially survive college BY SARA CAVE
Just checking in... on your checking account!
Tip 1. Find a bank that best fits U Most people in high school begin their financial journey by using the same bank as their parents. However, as you move out on your own, that specific bank may not be the best option for you. At the end of the day, it is all about saving money and a different bank could meet your needs better than your current bank. Spending some time researching your options can only help you later on.
Tip 2. Credit is important Being responsible for your first credit card is imperative to having good credit later on. Many credit card companies will try to tempt you with free stuff to sign up with their card. Easy, right? Maybe so, but always read the fine print before signing your name to a new card. Things to look for would be no annual fee, the types of rewards offered, and the interest rate.
Tip 3. Shop Smart When buying expensive items such as books, technology, or anything for school, it is always a good idea to shop around for the best price. Buying or renting a used book online can save you hundreds of dollars.
Tip 4. TRAX TRAX TRAX One of the best parts about the U is that the UTA TRAX runs right along the outside of campus. Students are able to ride TRAX for free when using their student Ucard. By saying goodbye to driving everyday, it saves money on gas, time, and helps better the environment.
Tip 5. Get a Job! As daunting as it may sound to go out and get a job, it can be very beneficial. Most businesses around and on campus hire students and offer flexible work schedules. There is never a lack of places for students to work at the U. Also, most of these places are walking friendly and/or accessible by public transit so a car is not needed!

The Great Outdoors By Jackie Larsen
Amid the sea of Chaco-wearing, Patagonia-donning, granola-eating students found at the University of Utah, there exists a minority group whose outdoor experiences are few and far between. Our campus sits at the base of the beautiful Wasatch mountains, which are home to a vast array of recreational activities. It’s no mystery as to why the U is attractive to so many students with a passion for the great outdoors. However, if you’re a current student at the U who doesn’t fit this profile exactly—no worries! When I entered the U as a freshman, the extent of my outdoor experience was the shortcut I would take through some trees to get to my car after work. I was determined to change this, however, and did exactly that with the help of the U’s robust collection of PRT classes. PRT stands for Parks, Recreation, and Tourism, and this department offers a plethora of exciting courses in activities like paddleboard yoga, backpacking, snowshoeing, outdoor cooking, and more! My first semester, I signed up for a 2 credit course called Autumn Backpacking. I knew absolutely nothing about backpacking, but I figured that since I wore a backpack every day to class and had no qualms with the season of Autumn, this might be a good fit. The entire class consisted of one weekend trip exploring the Uinta mountains, and although the backpack proved to be MUCH larger than I suspected, I ended up having the time of my life. The instructor taught us principles of Leave No Trace, familiarized us with the local wildlife and plant life, and facilitated group discussion. I came home sore, feet covered in blisters, and with two promises to myself. First—to never, ever hike in Nike running shoes again, and second—to sign up for another backpacking course in the spring. Since that first trip, I’ve topped off my schedule each semester with PRT courses. Although I still have tons to learn about outdoor recreation, I’m happy to report that I’ve since bought myself a decent pair of hiking boots and have transformed my noodle thighs into a little bit of muscle. Whether you’re an avid rock climber, an occasional hiker, or a newbie just as I was, the PRT department has an impressive variety of classes for all interests. Whether you take one to learn a new skill or to fulfill a minimum credit hour requirement, I recommend them to everyone. And, if you’re not too keen on going off campus, they even offer classes in the Union like bowling, billiards, and table tennis. The possibilities are endless!
Get out there!

Resorts close to Campus
By James Muir-Jones
When it comes to Ski resorts, students at the U are truly spoiled for choice. Within an hour’s drive of campus reside several world-class locations for skiers and snowboarders alike. Park City/Canyons is known as one of North America’s premier resorts, owing largely to its immense 7,000+ skiable acres and extensive terrain parks. If you like variety and you’re serious about your jumps and rails, then look no further. A five minute drive south of PC will bring you to Deer Valley. Looking past the staggering $1,500 season pass for students you’ll discover an experience like no other. Whether it’s personal valets, five star dining on the snow, or meticulously groomed trails, Deer Valley gives you a pretty good idea of “how the other half skis.” Another resort that’s skiers only is Alta, located just up Little Cottonwood Canyon south of the U. Known for its deep powder and impressive terrain, Alta offers a no-frills experience that puts nothing in-between you and the snow. Thanks to a relatively new on-mountain connection gate, you can now ski directly from Alta to one of Utah’s most popular resorts: Snowbird. Favored by many incoming freshmen as the go-to resort for big mountain skiing and snowboarding, Snowbird has something for everyone. With backcountry, bowls, trees and more, it is a fine place to start enjoying some of “the greatest snow on earth.” Lastly, we have Brighton- a true locals resort. Though it might not have the highest acreage or vertical drop, the terrain can surprise you with just how gnarly it will get after a heavy storm. In addition to the laid back culture that characterize many of the skiers and riders that shred there, you’d be hard-pressed to not enjoy Brighton. These are just a few ski resorts that make the University of Utah a dangerously appealing school for ski bums all over the world.
Student Discounts: We’ve all got to admit that skiing ain’t cheap; as far as hobbies are concerned. Luckily for us, there are several ways in which we can save money on the winter activities we love so dearly. First and foremost there are college discounts on season passes offered by all the major Utah resorts which can shave hundreds of dollars off the regular price. These discounts often require you to prove that you are full time student taking at least 12 credit hours, with other restrictions applying depending on where you choose to ski. Additionally, you can purchase discounted day passes through third party sellers that will save you a few bucks when you’re exploring different resorts. A great resource to use when buying day passes is Outdoor Adventures, located in the Student Life Center on campus. In addition to tickets, they offer ski and snowboard rentals at rock-bottom prices, so be sure to check them out!
Student Groups: At a University where well over half the student body takes to the slopes every winter, ski and snowboard clubs are somewhat of a must. Two clubs in particular are among the largest on campus and see hundreds of new students join every year: One Love and Utah Freeskier Society. Both clubs put on events for their members throughout the year, ranging from wax nights to ski movie screenings and much more. They also give their members access to extremely discounted season passes to most major resorts in the area. One Love and Utah Freeskier Society provide skiers and boarders with a community of like-minded powder hounds that share a mutual goal: get out there and shred the gnar. Both groups have tables outside the Union where they do sign ups, sell T-shirts, and blast rad skiing tunes throughout the week starting the first day of classes and going well into November. Feel free to stop by and ask them any questions you might have- they’ll love to help you out!
