      Keuka College Reviews

      Keuka College is an absolutely gorgeous campus with its location right on Keuka Lake. The college opens up water activities at Point Neamo for students to use free of charge. The people at this college are very nice, and it overall is a lower population college, which personally I really enjoy. Class sizes are rarely more that fifteen to twenty kids, other than science lectures which range between thirty and forty. This makes it very easy to see professors, and most of them are very kind and always willing to help. The only issue that I have with Keuka College is the limited parking close to the dorm and academic buildings, all other parking is a fifteen minute walk away which tends to be very inconvenient. The food is good, and it is not a huge party school either like most colleges are. I overall love Keuka College and am very happy that I decided to go there to pursue my dream of becoming a veterinarian!

      When we switched onto online learning amid the Corona Virus many professors expected 75% working and 25% listening so I was doing coursework all day everyday to keep up with these high expectations. Whereas in class it would be the opposite: 75% listening and 25% working. Keeping up with my home responsibility's, work, and school was exhausting and at the end of the day I didn't get much out of it, I was just doing busy work. However, I do realize it was something new and we were all doing the best we could. Professors communicated effectively and they took what students had to say into consideration.
      Most professors care about their students and will listen to them. The small classrooms offer a more personalized approach and is very helpful. The campus is beautiful, however some of the dorms are poorly taken care of (mold in vents, bathrooms not clean,etc). The food at the main dining area has been slowly improving, but is still not the best. The food plans are required, which I find take advantage of the students and are ridiculous. There has been troubles with parking and I think freshman should not be allowed to have a parking space in order to make room for the seniors.
