The courses at the University are in a word: Fantastic. The class sizes are of course small in comparison to a larger University but its not necessarily the size that accounts for the quality of the education. The professors are the one's who make a University worth while. The professors push their students into far more advanced classes knowing full well that they are capable of rising to the challenge. The variety of courses are also comparatively great and it helps that they all flow together with ideals and morals at their backbone.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I live on campus and I love the environment. The people here all come for the same reason. They want a better education and they aren't likely to screw that up by doing something disreputable. Everyone is friendly to the point where I have yet to eat alone in the dining hall. Intramural sports are in my opinion the best part about the campus apart from the academics.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
For what the school is asking for, I think I have learned and enjoyed myself more than what I expected. I have learned from the professors, from my friends, and from myself while on campus. The institution wants its students to succeed and they help in nearly every way possible.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
I encourage any new students to do two things when they move in to the campus or on the day of registration. At the beginning of every fall semester there is a big ultimate frisbee game to kick off the year. Players don't require talent or even to play, but I encourage everyone to be there because this is the first impression freshman are going to have on upperclassmen and it is a great way to form relationships. The second thing I encourage students to do is to ask an upperclassmen to talk about two minutes on the courses one is about to take. They can suggest professors, courses, and even time management techniques to deal with the previous two.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Students who live on campus are strongly urged to first talk to your RD and RA. These people can be the nicest people in the world and they will probably help you out in the near future, so it would be best to get to know them.
