| I'm
currently a sophomore at Hendrix College. Hendrix can best be
described as misleading. They promise students a positive, supportive environment
provided by both faculty and students, but this could not
be further from the truth. A large majority of the
students on campus are extremely cutthroat and snooty. Most of
them are well aware of their “superior intelligence” and seem
to find joy in the struggles of their classmates. Many
of the faculty members are the same way, concerned more
with their research than the success of their students. If
you are considering Hendrix for Pre-Medical studies, I DO NOT
recommend it. The admissions counselors will brag about their 88%
acceptance rate into medical school. This is unimpressive when you
discover only 15 kids end up applying. There is also
an alarming issue with the “party scene” on campus. Drinking
is allowed for all ages and it always gets out
of control. Dorms will throw parties on Wednesdays, Fridays and
Saturdays and the apartments have parties every night. I expected
partying to occur on campus, but not to this extreme.
I've seen kids doing cocaine and heroine and there
have been several reports of rape. But on parents weekend
the Dean sends out an email basically telling kids to
“sober up” before their parents arrive to maintain the school's
good standing. And if you don't like to party every
single weekend and get insanely drunk, then you're immediately considered
the outcast of the school and your social groups will
be very limited. I'm transferring at semester. I'm sure I
can get the same quality of education at a large
public school and be much happier with the staff and
students.
