Glossary of Student Cities


Our SU Online students come from all over the world.  Let's build a glossary about the amazing cities that you are all from! 

Add an entry to this glossary for your city.  It can be the city you grew up in, the city you currently reside, or your favorite city.  Please follow these directions:

  • Concept: Your concept should be titled "City, Country" or "City, State, Country."  For example: Paris, France or Chicago, Illinois, USA
  • Description: Describe your city in a few sentences.  Is your city large or small?  Located on the water or high up in the mountains?  What is your city known for?  Why do you love this city?  Add a photo of your city to your description.
  • Keyword(s): Add the state and country to the keywords so that others can search entries by state and country.
  • Attachment (optional): Add a word document with additional information about your city. 

Look at the Chicago, Illinois, USA entry by Molly Kelsen (test student) for an example.

Tucson, AZ

Tucson Arizona, a city of about 800,000, is located in southwest Arizona,  about an hour from the U.S. Mexican border.  It is in the sonoran desert and  known for prolific wildlife and year round greenery.  Surrounded by several mountain ranges on all sides, I think it is one of the most beautiful cities I have ever seen.  Along with the sunny weather, people from Tucson are friendly and outgoing.

Although a recent downtown renovation added some interesting things to do for urbanites,  the natural beauty and abundant opportunity for outdoor activity is what most appeals to me.
