Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Use the Academic Resource Center (ARC). They offer tutoring in many subjects, including math, writing, and various sciences. Also, if you struggle in a class, go talk to your professor. They really do listen, care, and do their best to help you succeed.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Be prepared to work hard, but to also have many opportunities to play hard.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
Freshman dorms are a bit noisy, and Sophomore dorms have a lot of stairs, but upperclassmen dorms have kitchenettes and are really nice. It's also nice to live on campus, close to everything.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Sodexo, our food provider, is pretty good. Food quality is decent, though it doesn't vary as much as we might like. I have noticed that it has improved over the years though.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Climb Mount Helena. Ski the Great Divide. Get ice cream at the Big Dipper. Visit the Creperie. Get coffee at the Merc or Firehouse. Go to mass at the Cathedral. Go ice skating or bowling. Visit the movie theater.
