I have loved every minute of my time at Butler—the professors, the classes, the environment, and the people are all what make this place so special. There is an atmosphere of love and support, something that you can't find on every campus. At Butler, I feel seen and supported by those around me, whether that's by my professors, my advisor, my boss at my on-campus job, or my friends. Each day I am so grateful that I get to attend the best school in the world. GO DAWGS!
Butler has amazing classes that are student oriented and set up for success. Professors are mostly understanding of anything and will accommodate anyone. Contact information for any services are readily available for things like counseling, student disability services, residence life and much more. The small size makes for more opportunities to find deeper connections with other students and there is a multitude of clubs, Greek houses, and sports teams to join to make these connections. However, the small size also can feel exclusive. Many students have difficulties making friends if the don’t join clubs and sports or go Greek. Additionally, for a college that prides itself on diversity and inclusion, there are many issues that could change. The campus itself is not very accessible to disabled students. There aren’t many professors of color. Commonly poc that work for the university work in the dining halls, janitorial department, or landscaping. Students are trying to fix this.
I feel that I am getting an excellent education at Butler. I have met many good friends that I feel that I will have forever. During the pandemic, life was difficult but I feel that was how life was everywhere. This was definitely an adjustment for all. For the first time in my life I was actually nervous about going to school, making friends with new people along with finding ways to become involved in the Butler community. Ever since stepping foot on campus I knew that this was the place for me. This Butler experience allowed me to learn how I can impact a community and create change along with just an amazing education and meeting people who will be lifelong friends. Butler also has an amazing resource of successful alumni in the highest positions of all jobs imaginable that come from all of the majors that are offered here. I am truly thriving in this environment. I believe when I graduate from Butler I can accomplish anything. I can be the change for society to become better..
