Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Art & Design Department  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Bright Houghton is a great college if you are willing to be stretched. The faculty is highly qualified and they will expect high standards from you. While attending I was an average student but pursuing my Masters I found my self at the top of my class due to my training at Houghton. There is a very diverse population for a small school so your peers will not be exactly like you. If you are looking for students that always think, act and dress the same as you then Houghton is not the place. My only regret about attending is the loans I am still paying off six years later. I would and have recommended this school to my friends and family! Faculty Accessibility: A+, Surrounding City: C+ Have a Question?

There is always a way to find some fun (might involve going up to Canada). The spiritual life is strong, teachers are nice, and administration is fair. Sports are not strong but the school spirit is good. Overall you will meet friends for life. The school won't pop on your resume but will not stop you from getting into great graduate programs (I did) and become very successful. You will have the chance to get closer to God.

The office of Student Life is unusually bad in this area. The dean of Students, Denise Bakerink, has never been married and seems unhappy and takes this out on the students. She fails to follow procedures outlined in the student guidebook and essentially perverts the entire school atmosphere. Unfortunately, she's a "company girl," graduated from Houghton, born and bred. So if you go, you're stuck with her there, but be sure she follows procedure. Perceived Campus Safety: A, Innovation: F Have a Question?
