The community so welcoming. The school is beautiful. The classes are great and are taught by professors that enjoy what they do.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Get involved. It's the best way to meet new people. Also, don't be afraid to apply for scholarships or talk to financial aid for help. The people in the finaid office here are great!
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Every professor here takes what they are teaching very seriously. If you aren't interested in what you're learning, talk to the professor right away (esp. if it's a gen ed) to see if there are alternate ways to go about learning or a differnet course that fits your interest.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
All of the dorms are really nice and really big. I live in the new academic building, suite side (instead of apartment style), but everyone has enough to room so that it doesn't feel like you and your roommate are right on top of eachother all the time.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
There aren't that many options for food. The Rogo Cafe tends to have fresher food, but you have to Buzz Bucks instead of your meal plan. The Cosgrove Cafeteria is where you use your meal plan and the salad bar is always fresh, but the options aren't always that great.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Every RA does a bunch of floor activites so that it's easier to meet the people you're living around. The campus also has a bunch of plays and stuff that students can get into for free. There are also usually parties every weekend.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
It's expensive, but I think nearly everyone recieves some kind of scholarship. The campus is great and the education is top notch.

First Thirst and Last Blast... I'll let you use your imagination.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Anyone; the sports here are pretty good, the academics are great, and the social life is always active.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There is really something for everyone. I'm involved in a volunteer group, there are groups dedicated to specific majors, tons of campus ministry, and the activity board always has something going on.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
Basically non-existent
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
The campus is quite small and if it's dark and you don't feel like walking back to your dorm you can call security and someone will walk you back. The campus itself is very safe; the surrounding areas can be kind of freaky at night, though.
