Most of the faculty are great: available, approachable, friendly, willing to help you out, very good in their fields, etc.

The administration, however… a few of them working in administration are good, but by and large the administration looks out for themselves and… I don't really know WHO they're looking out for, but it's not the students or the faculty, that's for sure.

The students are for the most part friendly. It's a small campus, so everyone is around everyone else, you get to know a lot of people, etc. The downside is that being small, on occasion everyone gets at each other's throats, but that's semi-rare, at least in my case.

Athletes are well taken care of, at the expense of everyone else on campus (money-wise). Greeks are also well cared for at the expense of all others, even though Greeks are a fairly small minority (they've been exapanding greatly this year though, it seems). Oh, again, this is administration deciding where dollars go, by the way.

Student apathy seems to be unusually high. Maybe it's just me being into more things than most others, but a lot of the time it's INCREDIBLY hard to get ANYONE to want to do anything—even party!

With all that said, though, I do like the college. If the administration would shape up, I would LOVE the college…
