Bryan College - Dayton

Date: Apr 09 2007
Major: Education (This Major's Salary over time)
I just transfered to this school this semester after completing 3 semesters at a much bigger school. Here I am much more than just a number, the head of my major knows me by more than my GPA, and the students are incredibly inclusive. Yes, this is a smaller school so there are not as many options as to what you can major in, but the ones we do have are composed of high-quality courses with tough but personable and understanding professors. You will be taught about God here, told about the truths found in it, asked about what you believe and challenged to defend it. When you cannot defend it the attitude is not one of "Aha! I just won the debate!" but of mercy and guidance toward the truth, and why they believe that. The faculty/staff/administration are approachable, and allow themselves to be perceived as real people instead of stereotypical professors. They step outside of those boundaries as "classroom professors," and let you get to know them as a mother/father with a family, and long to know you as a person and invest in your life not just your GPA.

Before coming to Bryan you should know that the staff will do anything they can to get you in here once you know God wants you here; that you will work hard in your classes on papers and projects THAT MATTER and will prepare you for the "real world"; that the students here are real people, some from broken families and backgrounds, but all with a story of God's grace that will astound you. Lastly, you should know that although you will be challenged here beyond average standards, you will also grow in your faith, in your ability to work with people, and in many other ways beyond your preconceived expectations of this "small town college."
