Well during the COVID-19 shutting us down right after Spring Break was a stopping moment in time. Trying to get setup do finish my classes online was a little adjustment, but overall it went ok. The professor was available to answer or assist with any questions or concens. This was the only area I was praying that this would work working hand by hand and it did. Patience goes along way if both parties are willing to make this Online Class work!
As far as professors go, they are absolutely wonderful. Administration however, is a complete mess. They are so focused on making sure students pay for their crimes like visitation hours violations and being found with alcohol in their apartment, that they don't even have time to implement ways to help students enjoy their experience here on campus. I am a current student at ETBU, but I will ABSOLUTELY be transferring. The cafeteria food is horrible, it gave me food poisoning several times during my freshman year. There is nothing to do on campus, with the exception of bible studies. No tailgates, no Greek life, no parties allowed, no visitation with the opposite gender after midnight (10 PM for freshmen in Centennial). Overall, great professors, intensely strict, the kind of Christian atmosphere that shoves religion down the throats of the student body, very little school spirit, and very few returning students.
As a whole, East Texas Baptist University has so far been a wonderful experience for someone like me who prefers a small-town feel in their college, as well as more Christ-focused learning. Simultaneously, the professors assist your education and faith, all whilst being generally friendly and accepting of whoever you may be. The classes can be a little difficult, though that honestly depends on your ability to adapt to the use of Canvas in all your classes, and the class in specific you are in. Even if you aren't doing the best, you only need to ask a fellow student or professor, and 9.5 times out of 10 you'll be sure to get the assistance you need. With some of the on-campus activities, namely pre-test study sessions the professors set up, asking for help usually isn't required. My only complaint would be the surrounding area, Marshal. I understand not everywhere in America is nice, however, Marshal and the campus contrast vastly in appearance and a feeling of safety.
