It's a great school that takes a lot of dedication. A lot of the students here are hard working and it's great to collaborate with students from all over the world. I would recommend this college for male students looking to take his education to the next level.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Disclaimer: This is an all male school. But it is a great opportunity to meet people from all walks of life and value women even more whenever you do come across them. Come prepared to work hard!
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Wabash is known for its academic rigor. The professors are always willing to help out students who make themselves available. Students really have to commit and take on the workload that Wabash comes with.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
Wabash is about 60% greek and 40% dorm. This doesn't necessarily separate us. Speaking from the greek life, I can say that I have friends on both sides and we all get along just fine.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
In my fraternity, we have a great cook. We do our best to make sure her cooking environment is in tip top shape so that she can be comfortable and feel at home. She cooks for about 70 guys and does and excellent job each time. For non fraternity students, we have two on campus facilities for dining.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
There are many clubs and organizations to be involved with here at Wabash. I participate in the Glee Club and do a few plays throughout the semester. The town we live in is relatively small so there are limits to the things we can do outside of the college. There is a movie theatre, bowling alley, fast food restaurants, and a local theater that hosts plays every year. If students are looking for a more diverse setting, a 45 minute to 1hr drive may be called for.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Wabash is relatively expensive for a private college. There are only about 850 students on campus, but Wabash can also be pretty generous about scholarships. We have a large endowment, but one has to make use of it in order to reap the benefits.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
Wabash has the longest fight song in the nation. One of our long standing traditions is learning this song and being able to perform it for about 1 hour. There is an arch on the campus that students are not allowed to walk under unless he is an alum. Seniors walk under this at commencement. In addition, there is a senior bench that only seniors can sit on but others have the opportunity to paint it and represent his fraternity, dorm, club, or organization.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Wabash is a great place for guys who are self motivated and have a determination to succeed. He must be willing to make sacrifices and know that the type of education he will receive here is invaluable and will take him where he wants to go.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
Getting involved across campus is the way of life at Wabash. There are so many clubs and activities to choose from here. With the tremendous amount of work, we definitely need a period of respite to take a break. There are organizations that appeal to students of all backgrounds like our Muslim Students Association, College Republicans, College Democrats, Language Club, and our 'sHOUT club for gays, lesbians, and bisexual students.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
The first question most guys ask when they're considering Wabash College is, Where will I live? And just like so many aspects of our student-centered culture, it's completely up to you. There are a total of nine fraternities but each fraternity is different — each has its own personality — so students who wish to pledge a fraternity should go around and meet brothers in all of the houses to find the perfect fit.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Because Wabash has a tight knit community, everyone looks out for each other. We also have security on campus 24/7 to ensure our safety and the safety of our personal belongings if we should leave the campus.
