Like many others have said - this college is like summer camp. Very little is taken seriously, which is great for the first year, but you would expect things to start getting real, but they don't.

Warren Wilson exists in its own bubble, and does not give students a realistic sense of what to expect after graduation, nor any skills (other than blue color skills from the work program).

I say this in all honesty, because I have seen so many of my classmates struggle after graduation, and have done so myself. I was called for a job interview and asked about the colleges ranking as a 'pot head' school. The name of the college is not taken seriously by anyone.

I must say the people are amazing, the teachers go out of their way for you, yet there is a general sense of disillusion amongst some of the the staff and the student body that is hard to not get caught up in.

I have met some of the most amazing people here, and built great relationships, but if your goal is the graduate with a job (as so many of us need to because of loans), or go on to a GOOD grad school, its going to be a very though path.

The career service fair is a joke, its mainly summer camps looking for vocational labor, and the college offer summer jobs on their crews.

I really miss the place, and its a perfect holiday retreat, but not a place to learn, to grow, or to progress.
