UW-Stout is not just an awesome segue to an education, but to an awesome town worth exploring. Menomonie offers so much for students but is often under-appreciated.
There are many places to study. My personal favorites are at the local Cafe's.
The University offers a variety of clubs that all students are eligible for!
Menomonie is beautiful year round! There are multiple parks for exploring, new food to try and life outdoors is boundless. The Things to do with out of town visitors page has a variety of entertaining things in Menomonie listed as well!
