I transferred to MC from a Big 12 school. Coming from such a "liberal" environment, MC was a definite culture shock. Academics: I have not been challenged academically. Coming from such a huge school, I know it's inevitably going to be different. But I really just haven't learned a lot. Teachers are nice and have great intentions, but it's not rigorous whatsoever. Attendance is required, and missing class affects your grade... pretty lame if you ask me. However, there are a lot of opportunities to become involved in academic clubs and, since it's such a small school, to pad your resume with all that and even get high positions in those clubs.
Social life: Yeah. Horrible. If you're not a baptist, chances are you're not going to fit in. They do have social tribes and clubs (supposed to be like fraternities and sororities), but they more closely resemble middle-school cliques.
City: Clinton is boring. Waffle House is cool. But that's really about all there is. Oh... and Wal*Mart. Everything else is about 30 minutes away.
Side note: We had a gay-rights/religious group visit campus last year, and the Clinton PD arrested some of them for setting foot on campus. Ridiculously closeminded. That's not what college should be about. I don't like MC, and I'd transfer somewhere else in a heartbeat. But if you're very conservative, like small environments, and are after that sort of atmosphere... you'll really love it. Lots of people love it and do very well. It's just not for everyone. | Perceived Campus Safety: A+, University Resource Use: F |  | | |

| Bright | MC is one of a few colleges where you find out who you are and what you want to do with your life. If you're a party hound, this ain't the place for you. Head to Ole Miss or State, etc. But if you want to be able to focus on your education and meet mostly strait-laced females, this is the place. They'll help you keep your mind on the books, or maybe a mag back at the dorm. That's not to say there aren't some wild ones that sneak in. All said, going to MC kept me from being a hard-partying dropout at one of the public universities which is what happened to a lot of my friends. MC provided the atmosphere I needed to succeed. Oh yeah, I did sip a beer my senior year, ooooh but true. | Campus Aesthetics: A+, Surrounding City: D |  | | |

| Bright | MC is an excellent choice as far as the knowledge you will receive in your field. I think it offers a rather unrealistic view of the actual every day world. It's a beautiful campus and once you weed out the ultra religious students and find the "normal" ones, you'll have a pretty good college experience. | Starting Job: Statistics Coordinator, Preparedness: C, Reputation: B+ |  | |
