This school is for young people wanting to study hard and having a relaxing experience at the same time. There is always something going on. If you are the big city type used to 24 hours entertainment, this school is definitely NOT for you.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Take your time making new friends. Use your social media networks, if needed, to help you navigate around campus and classrooms.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
The classrooms are small and there is plenty of interaction between the professor and the students. The University uses Blackboard, which makes it easier to review classroom material on your own time.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
Other than the weekend the air conditioners weren't working, the dorms are great. The RA has activities scheduled weekly for meet and greet. I'm lucky because the cafeteria and student center are also located in my dorm complex.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Not quite just like home, but pretty close. Fried chicken is a staple for lunch and dinner. We always have choices of pasta, salads, pizzas, hamburgers and other items. With your meal card, you can eat as much as you want.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
We usually hangout on the Quad since most freshmen do not have cars.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
You have the opportunity to meet many people from different background. There is always something going on.
I'm really getting a quality education for less money than most of my friends who chose larger institutions.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
There is a tomb, located outside the old cafeteria, of the founder of the school, William Hooper Councill, and his wife.
From orientation, we learned that Mr. Councill was sold as a slave on the spot in which he was buried.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Introverts looking for friends. The school sort of forces you to mingle and network with others.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There is a lot of recruiting for clubs and activities on campus.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
The Greeks on campus helped us to move all of our stuff in on move-in day. They performed a street show for us during our first week on campus.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
The school has 24 hour onsite campus police who are very visible. It is really a very safe place.
