Beginning almost on their first day at the University, UA students constantly are asked two questions. One is what their matricualation number is, and the other is why they chose to come to the UA. To discover what some of the various reasons were for selecting the University, the DESERT yearbook asked several persons that frequently asked question. Sometimes the reply was because it was closer to home or because the student was not accepted somewhere else. At other times the person was not quite sure why he chose the school. But regardless of the reasoning, most students found they were glad they had decided to join the variety of people in becoming part of a large university while still re- taining their individuality.
