    Everything about the campus excites me! From the spacious dorms, to the intimate classrooms, to the landscaping - Georgia Southern Armstrong is one of the nicest schools you could choose.
    Armstrong has a unique atmosphere. All over the campus, plants representing different parts of the world can be found. The students are diverse creating a large range of student activities and organizations one can participate in. Classes rage from small groups to large lectures. It is easy to build a professional relationship with professors and other students at Armstrong, as it is also easy to make a path for yourself by starting a club/ organization or other.
