I've grown up in the town with Shorter & it's rival Berry. The teachers are great. All of them are very friendly and want to help you. Also, I have joined a Sorority and love it, but that's about the end of what I like about Shorter. They're cutting majors and the majors they provide, aside from Nursing & Theater, suck and really aren't worth the time. If you aren't a Baptist or Evangelical DO NOT go to this school. I've learned the hard way. You're forced to participate in their insane "Baptist" practically Evangelical religious services and 99.5% of the students are the same way creating serious isolation for those that aren't. I'm just a Freshman, but I shall be transferring as soon as I possibly can.

Honestly its a terrible place to be and a very "high school" like atmosphere. I dont live on campus however I have seen the dorms and the filth is unbearable. The proffessers are ok, as in they come from good colleges and universities, although they are arrogant about doing so. So the help you obtain is not sufficeint because the whole time all they are trying to do is make you feel stupid. The social life consists of redneck athletes, and theatre "people", non criticizing either although its not for your average everyday student (you better dip tabacco or sing to make friends here) Its no good honestly.

This university is a friendly place which is the thing that attractted me there, but I must sad it does have a bad side. Shorter college is a baptist college, it used to be a womens college, and its in a period right now of improving itself. While this college might be good in a couple of years I would have to say it is not at its prime right now.The best way i can put it is you certainly see why georgia's schools have the reputation they do here. Furthermore, instead of this being one unified campus, it is a campus divided in three parts: the athletes, the music/ theater people, and the students who came there because it is a christian school. And it is a christian school, but I had teachers who were against christianity. Shorter might be a good school someday but its going to take a couple of years
