The teachers here are generally really nice and easy to talk to. Sure, there are those certain professors you watch out for, but so does every college. The professors I've had so far are really easy-going for the most part, and made transitioning here from high school very smooth.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
Being here is awesome. Simple as that. I am generally a shy person, but living on campus has really given me the opportunity to meet awesome and various people and make new friends. In my lodge (yes, lodge. The housing here is amazing) people come over and we play board games and watch movies and we all just hang out. And if I ever need anything, I know there's someone here to talk to. The campus in it's entirety is very pretty. There's a lake and is laid out well for semi-weekly walks or runs. The pond is also really pretty to look at, and I get a view of it from my dorm. Just watch for goose poop when walking during the months the geese are here at the pond.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
There are a TON of activities on campus for people to do. You get a good education and make plenty of friends, but that's not all that's makes a bang for your buck. There are many free events like dances, speeches, magic shows, concerts, lodge activities scheduled almost weekly by your CA's (Community Advisors). Most of which is free, and if not free, at least discounted. There's always something going on here!
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
If you are like I was and are nervous about large campuses, not looking forward to being just a number, fear not. The campus is small, and yet is spacious so you don't feel cramped. And the class sizes here are small, and all of my professors know me by my name. My largest class is my German class, which has maybe 20 people or so. It really is a great experience, but you have to experience. I suggest visiting here and seeing the campus for yourself.
