How good is Iowa State?

My son is finishing his first semester at ISU. We live about 10 hours away, so he is also there 24/7 with the exception of school breaks. While many of the students are in-state, they are not all going home on the weekends. My son has made amazing friends, including his roommate, and has a very active social life. There is no shortage of things to do on the weekends. Football and basketball games are so much fun (my son was not a big sports fan before college, but loves the social aspect). And his roommate loves fishing, so my son will tag along on occasion, and they have a great time. And of course, there are parties. My son loves the school, and I’m so glad that he’s already found such a strong support system (he’s planning on moving off campus next year with four other boys).
