The faculty here are very self-absorbed, which I don't understand since their jobs aren't dependent on publishing or producing in their field. They egos run rather high in the sciences. As long as you're doing the work the faculty want you'll be ok. Once you start doing something creative the independet thought alarm goes off and you get your hand slapped. Since the college as fallen on hard times it seems like they're bringing anyone with a pulse in that can foot the bill. Seats for classes are scarce. Sure the faculty student ratio is good, but you're restricted in what you can take. The administration doesn't seem to care either, they only want the bodies to make their financial goals. Lots of things get swept under the carpet. I think this place is kind of a joke. Like other liberal arts colleges this size, it probably won't be around in 10 years. Which is good, it might get some of the faculty out in the real world; it might humble them a bit…
