I am really impressed with the modern approach to a liberal arts education. The professors are really dedicated to helping you achieve the answer to a problem through multiple different lenses, really preparing you for the challenges of the real world. I am really impressed with The College of Idaho's education. The price, however, would be on my list of things I want to change. The college offers a lot of scholarships to help students out and the return on investment is great!
The College of Idaho has a great curriculum due to their peak program, which allows you to graduate college with one major and three minors. This allows for students to gain a vast amount of knowledge in various areas (peaks) so that they are prepared to enter the world, or the job market for anything. The athletics at the College are great, which makes for fun weekends, but if you aren't really into sports there are still a bunch of clubs open for anyone to join anytime of the year. Cultural clubs, clubs of academic interests, and clubs that take you out of campus to explore the city, and the nature that Idaho has to offer. However The school can improve in various ways just like any school. The college needs to care about the well being of their students more by investing in services on campus that help their students manage the effects of their busy lives like: mental health, workload, and paying for school. Overall the college is a great place to learn and grow.
While this school could be more aware of broader social issues, the entire campus is driven by the safety, education, and best interests of the students. Professors are amazing, athletics are fun (very competitive) without sacrificing the college's culture entirely to athletics. Your academic experience can be largely dependent upon your major. The peak system has solid results, but I am not a fan; it fails to give students the ability to figure their major and minors out through class expirementation. Most students take 5 years to graduate with undergrad full time.
