Truman State University has some of the best teachers I have had. I'm not saying they're all perfect (there are always a few slackers out there), but the vast majority of teachers here are very dedicated to what they do. When you're sitting in a class you'll easily be able to tell that these teachers are here wholeheartedly to teach you. They want you to understand what they're teaching, and they do everything they can to make sure that happens. In addition, if you're still struggling in the class almost all of them are available outside of class to meet with you to discuss any problems you may experience.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
Without a doubt. I love this school, and I can't imagine going anywhere else. I know a lot of people don't like the fact that Truman is located in Kirksville, MO (and some of you may not even know where that is) but I happen to love the small town feel. It definitely gives me a sense of home and a feeling of safety. In addition, the programs available on campus always have events throughout the week to keep students entertained. Not only that, but I love being here simply because of the people. I have yet to meet a person from Truman State University that I really don't like. Everyone I've met has been kind, respectful, and dedicated.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Oh yes. Truman definitely gives you a BANG for your buck. The price of tuition blew my mind when I first found out. I had heard such great things about the school that I expected the cost to be much higher than what it is. If you're even on the fence about this college, then take into account the price. The teachers are great, it has a beautiful small town atmosphere, the campus in beautiful, and the price was just the cherry on top for me.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Immerse yourselves in this school! It's a fantastic school that will provide you with a very well-rounded education. However, getting involved on campus will make your college experience much more enjoyable. There are countless organizations, social fraternities, service fraternities, academic clubs, etc that are easy to join on campus. Getting involved is the fastest way to make friends and to really get the most out of college.
