Absolutely amazing college! There are always events happening, never a boring moment. The campus is gorgeous and the people there are some of the best you will ever meet. Lots of places to buckle down and get some studying done as well as areas to just hang out with friends. There isn't a whole lot to do in Atchison but the town is really cute. The only big thing is that the food is hit or miss, sometimes it's good but a lot of the time it's slightly questionable.
Benedictine College is a visionary experience aimed at creating future leaders in various top-tiered industries and professions who can think and problem solve effectively and lead companies toward sucess. This college is a cohesive experience without any confusion or indoctrination efforts. The faculty care about developing their students minds and careers in an open, challenging atmosphere that respects each student's perspective. Students who crave a collegiate atmosphere that respects their individuality and their pursuit of academic excellence free from ideological conformance will find a home here. Although the surrounding area of Atchison, Kansas is not the thriving metropolitan area that surrounds other colleges in our nation, the faculty and staff at Benedictine College more than make up for the lack of surrounding activities and night life by organizing countless student activities on campus. The area surrounding Benedictine College appears to be a safe environment.
There are a few professors who actually care, although I heard most of these no longer work there. However, this is a school where rich people send their kids who otherwise aren’t college material. They just buy their way in. Classes are so dumbed down as to be high school 2.0. Students often can barely read and are more interested in loudly telling everyone about their virgin status and how it’s okay to bully people into being conservatives or how female bodies are disgusting and evil. Professors taught that rape can’t really be helped, as well. The facilities are shoddy and the school only cares about money. The administration is a joke and wildly incompetent. The only positive side is that the town is super weird and into Halloween and ghosts. So that’s sort of quirky. Not worth the money at all. Very depressing experience.
