Read What Students Are SayingIt's a small student mass...You will be able to be more one-on-one with your teachers.
Katelyn from Raccoon, KY
The teachers here care about their students and how they are doing academically. There is a small student:faculty ratio so if a student needs help, they can talk with a professor one-on-one to get the assistance they need.
