Denison University is a community of its own on the hill. It values diversity and integrity. Denison is a great place to be.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
If applying to Denison I suggest you visit the campus. It helped me decide because you don't get to experience the vibe unless you are there. The people here are just very nice and courteous it will surprise you. Also, keep up on your school work because we are a bit fast paced but it is manageable.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
It is not so bad, but if a student who never took AP classes came into this environment it would be hard for them.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
It depeneds which dorm you get assigned to. There is your typical party hall and your regular quiet houses but administration does a good job in putting you in the right hall.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
The food is okay, On some days its really great & then it'll be okay again. It varies but there is always sandwiches and salad so it is not so bad if you do not like any of the other stations.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
There are many clubs on campus that do a great job at planning different events for the weekend. There is always stuff going on. We get great speakers all the time and fun things to, like magicians and movies. There is really no dull moment.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
An unusual tradition is stepping on the seal outside of the Swasey Chapel. It is said that if you step on it you will not graduate on time. Everyone avoids it.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There are sooooo many clubs. There is something for everyone!
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
I feel safe & they have emergency booth things all around campus just in case you need help.
