UCM is the best of both worlds. You get the small town feel and the feeling of a big campus all at once. The people are friendly, the classes and teachers are personal, and everyone is always more than willing to help.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Definitely get to know your teachers on a more personal level. They will be more willing and flexible about any difficulties you have with assignments. All of your extra effort never goes unnoticed. You will find the most generous and down to earth faculty right here in Warrensburg.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
UCM provides an academic setting that challenges you in ways that will help you succeed in the outside world. While of course there are the basic general education classes that everyone has to sit through, the classes more specific to your major/minor are the real reason to come to this school. Because the class sizes are smaller, the teachers get to know their students and know just how to challenge you in ways that help you grow rather than sitting mindlessly through dull classes.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
Dorm life can definitely make or break your college experience. My personal dorm experience has been within a ship with people with similar majors to my own. The dorms have nice furniture, clean bathrooms, and a safe and clean environment for academic studies. Choosing a ship was the best choice for me because everyone shares similar interests, but dorms with a mixture of majors brings together a crazy mix of people for you to hang with.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Just like in any other campus, there are good food options and bad food options. There's always a salad bar and a sandwich station and of course you have to have your pizza. The Student Union offers you a selection of fast food options as well. It's easy to eat healthily, but of course it's easy not to as well. I definitely enjoy late night which offers anything from waffles to funnel cake fries, my personal favorite. There's never a day that I've gone hungry.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
UCM is in a small town, so there's the basic activities that any town can provide. For those who are over 21, there's always Pine Street with all the bars, but for those under 21 there's a movie theater, and of course the many late-night Walmart trips. On campus there's a bowling alley open daily, lots of activities put on by student organizations, and there's always awesome movies playing in the Student Union for free with the comfiest recliners you've experienced in your life. My friends and I would usually grab people on our floor to watch a movie and have our own little theme nights to keep ourselves entertained for free. There's always something to do!
