Ev'rywhere she gathers knowledge, All that's good and true, Gives she to her sons and daughters, Of Nevada U.

Let her praises wake the echoes, While we pledge anew, Hearts and minds and hands and voices To Nevada U. eight movies that no one has probably ever heard of were filmed on UNR's campus, including: Apartment for peggy(1948), and Hilda Crain(1956) neither of which ive previously heard of. luckily for us californians, UNR is a part of the WUE program, which gives students who live in western states a discount from out of state fees.
