The scenery is gorgeous. Class sizes are small and allow for better engagement with the professors. The professors, most of them at least, do care that their students obtain their education. There have been frequent staffing changes at the college in the last few years however which can make things more difficult in regards to knowing who it is that one needs to speak with for advice.
Facilities are lacking, especially in the cafeteria. Overall, people are okay, but everyone is in everyones business because of how small the school is and how few people live on campus. There are not very many campus activities, besides the occasional sports game. Not worth what you have to pay to attend Tusculum College.
Each student is treated as more than just a number. Smaller classes allow professors to build personal relationships. Although the schedule may seem hectic or rushed, plenty of services (individualized tutoring, long library hours, etc.) assist each student with his or her academic goals.
