Bethel College has an incredible and very welcoming environment that will completely draw a person in. While attending the college and getting the opportunity to walk through the beautiful campus, a person will meet many new people because everyone is always saying, Hi to others in passing. I enjoy going here because of the people, professors, and the overall atmosphere.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
My tips for prospective students is to be prepared to open up because everyone wants to know about you! Most importantly, live on campus! You get to know so many people this way and Bethel has many activities for students to attend while staying on campus.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
I love being a history major (although I came in as a pre-law major until I received some very good advice)! However, being a history major requires a lot of reading at once and very detailed reading. Reading is definitely not the only major assignment, but the longest one for me because they tend to accumulate rather quickly. Although, I do appreciate this since I am working towards becoming a lawyer for children and delinquents.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
I love living in the dorms because it really helps with my social life and always ensures that somebody wants to know how my day is going! Living in dorms is also easy access, because the resources needed are always right near you and the campus is beautiful. The only reason I chose to mark it down a star is because the internet server is slow here during certain times in the dorm, because of this I have bought an ethernet cable to enable me to always access the internet.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
The food here isn't awful and we have a nice sub place on campus called the Acorn. The only problem is that we only have three places on campus to eat and a person can easily grow tired of continuously eating at the same place.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
There are always events going on! When living in the dorms the residential directors put together many free activities both on and off campus which keeps up the excitement and gives people a chance to get out with their friends. Then, we have the sporting events such as basketball and soccer games that groups love to go and give their support.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
The professors here is what makes it all seem worth it. I know that seems silly, but they are the ones influencing how and what you learn. At Bethel, they care so much about each individual that it truly has changed my life. Unfortunately, I don't know if my professor/advisor will ever know how much he has truly impacted me, but it makes everything worth it!
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
I am unaware of whether any other college does this, but I am very thankful for our Christmas and Thanksgiving dinners, they are the best!
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Christians! Bethel is a private college and for those desiring a college that focuses on God and their religious life, then this is the perfect place to go! Chapel is usually fun and up-beat and each professor incorporates their faith into their teachings!
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
As I have already stated there are a ton of activities on campus, but there are also many clubs for everyone to be involved in. There is a club that fits everybody.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
We don't have sororities or fraternities here so I am unaware of any form of Greek life.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Our campus safety can always be seen driving around, which makes me feel safe. Also, they are not ridiculous on tickets like I here about on some colleges. The fines aren't large, and the first one is a warning if you happen to park in the wrong place.
