We Are Nebraska

We believe in the power of every person.

We don’t rest on our strengths—

we stretch them. Sweat them. Combine them.

Growing flexible, nimble and strong minds.

That’s how we do big things.

Students sit on the field of the stadium to listen to welcome messages. Text on the graphic reads "Welcoming New Huskers!"

Campus Life on Film

For the fall semester, we provided a disposable camera to senior Makayla Larntz. She documented her life as a Husker — from welcoming new students to campus as an NSE leader to celebrating mentors on campus to showcasing her on-campus involvements — giving students and prospective students a first-hand look at what it's like to be a Husker.
