Accommodating. Friendly. Inspiring.
Marian has helped me from the moment I took the campus tour two years ago up until my current enrollment in the school. We all have things come up in our lives and Marian made it easy to find courses and a program that would benefit my schedule.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
If you are a first year, take the general courses first and definitely take the First year seminar. Being a transfer student, I didn't have to take this course and I believe I suffered a bit for it. The seminar course prepares you for writing papers at a college level and gives you a good introduction into college life. Also join one of the many extracurricular clubs that the University has going on. There is a club for just about every major at the University.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
The classes are all beneficial to a student's learning. The professors help make learning fun. True, some give more assignments or papers than others, but there seems to be a balance despite the amounts of work assigned. Marian's online courses are well developed.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
I personally don't live on campus, but I have friends who do and they have no complaints. Rooms are nice.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
The campus completely redesigned their dining areas and the food is good. Not too far from campus are a few different dining options such as Taco Bell, McDonalds, Subway, or even other sit down restaurants.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Fond du Lac itself has a great night life going on. There is adequate shopping in the town or in towns close by. Campus wise - Get in there, open up. Don't be shy. All it takes is saying Hi to one person that sits next to you. Attend campus events, make friends. College is an experience so enjoy it!
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Campus safety is excellent. The security team really takes their jobs seriously. There are poles all around campus for emergency use. If it is late at night and you parked far away, they don't hesitate to walk you to your vehicle or find an escort for you.
