The overall interpretation of this institute after 2 years of recieving an education is that it's undeniably a lovely school. Its small enough in size to be easily accessible and not overwhelming to its students, however it has all the amenities that the larger universities do. The class size are manageable, making it easier to have a functional relationship with ones teachers. There is not a lot of pressure to be part of the typical social scene, and the school also provides a lot of fun activities and events to attend.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
This school is best suited to those that appreciate the finer things, the slow going but intense experiences. It is a great place to get your start in becoming an educated adult in this world. You're guarenteed to make friends, share memories, and learn tools of the trades that will help you through life.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Classes are challenging. Studying is a requirement, much like at any college. But classes are comfortable and the regime is not too hard to complete.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
As an employees of Lander University's Housing and Residence Life Department I know first hand about all the dorms at this school. They're fairly large rooms, more so than most school's freshman dorms especially, that get maintenance attention regularly. It's the best place to start making connections with friends and acquaintances in a comfortable atmosphere.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
The Dining Hall at Lander University consists of 6 buffet style tables alternating with variations of foods everyday. There is enough diversity that even a picky eater could find something to munch down on. Best part is that the chefs are trained in catering so the food is of great quality.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
As a member of the University Programming Council (UPC) I know first hand of all the school sponsored events to do at Lander. We hire acts of all kinds to entertain our student body, from artists to musicians and even contortionists. That's at least three times a month, and does not include the individual activities put on by the various school clubs throughout each semester.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
For the price, Lander is most positively a worthwhile academic facility located in small town Greenwood, SC. Its quaint and charming but as challenging as any college should be for its students. I think almost all students would like it there.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
Lander University is located in Greenwood, Sc, only a few minutes walk away from Downtown Greenwood. Downtown has a theater for students who appreciate local acting, as well as stores, and a plaza. Its a nice little getaway from school.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
All types: shy and withdrawn to social and overachieving. There's something for every personality type at Lander. The best part is that all these types tend to get along well in the day to day social aspects at school.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There is a club for everything and everyone. I was once antisocial, but at Lander I've become a member in a hand full of clubs and even a president in one. Whatever your interest may be, there is a club for you.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
The Greek life is always popping off at lander, and they love to put on cook outs and socials. If your interested in this type of socialization, you're in luck because there's quite a few to choose from, all the major ones are represented here.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Lander University has on campus police force 24/7, and the city of Greenwood also lends its police to the university in moments of crisis. There are yellow call buttons around campus to receive immediate attention if a hazardous situation occurs. Lander University is one of the safest places for a young adult to live.
