Marshall university is an amazing school, and I would recommend it for people who are looking for an in the middle school. The classes are small enough so you can get personal one-on-one contact with professors, but big enough so it doesn't still feel like high school.Marshall's campus is also located in one area, so you don't have to worry about traveling far to get to class.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Personally, I think high school seniors should always visit the campus first before deciding on their college. Marshall is located in a convenient area of Huntington, where you can walk almost anywhere you need to go. I would also recommend future student to meet the dean of their college. This is where you can ask any questions you may have about what you will be studying and what will be expected of you.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Marshall professors are dedicated to making sure the students get through the required materials for their class. Although the work may be challenging, the professors always have office hours where you may ask any questions you have.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
As a freshmen residing in the freshmen dorms, I know first hand that the dorms are amazing. There are quiet hours through the night so no one is kept awake. The freshmen dorms also have their own bathroom and sink, which makes living there very convenient. Finally, resident advisors stay on each floor to make sure everyone follows the rules. I would recommend every freshmen to stay in the freshen dorms.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Marshall's food and dining areas are top of the line. They have two dining halls, and other restaurants such as Pizza Hut, chick fil a, and star bucks. The dining halls always have a variety of entrees from the pizza station, to the grill, the salad bar, or the international station. The chefs always prepare amazing meals, and take into consideration your opinions.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Marshall always has activities for students to do on campus. There is a club called campus activity board that has activities funded for students to do every week. These activities are usually free, and include ultimate frisbee, glow in the dark rock climbing, and movie night. Other activities cost a small fee, usually no more than $10, and include things such as a Phillip Phillips concert, watching the comedian Jay Leno, and the musical Rudolph. There are also intramural sports to join like volley ball, basket ball, and racket ball. Finally, Marshall has a recreation center that has three floors of work out equipment. The rec-center has a swimming pool, basketball courts, volley ball nets, racket ball rooms, and also offers classes such as Zumba, yoga, and spin. In my experiences at Marshall, I have always had something to do.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Marshall has a great campus and friendly staff. It worth every penny to attend such a feet college. The professor actually care about learning and do not assign busy work. The dining areas and dorms are cleaned daily, and kept in great condition.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
One tradition that was new to me was the ceremony of turning off Marshall's fountain for the winter. The fountain was created as a memorial for the students and other people killed in the plane crash. On the day the plane crashed students, families, and friends gather to hold a ceremony in remembrance of all the people who lost their lives. And then the fountain is turned off for the winter months.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
There are clubs to join for any type of student. Marshall has many clubs from Harry potter club, to M.E.D. L.I.F.E club. With all these clubs, there is something to fit everyone's personal interests. Marshall also offered hundreds of undergraduate degrees for any career profession.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
With campus activity board, and all the clubs, there is always something to do at Marshall. The activities are actually fun and are usually free!
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Marshall is a very safe campus. There are help alert systems located all over campus. If one felt threatened, they should push the call button and police would arrive in three minutes. There are also campus police that patrol campus regularly. Marsha also offers an alert text or email notification. In the event of an emergency, every student that signed up to receive and notification will be notified.
