This was my first year at Wabash College and couldn't be happier with the experiences I've been given and education that I've received. The professors here are incomparable to other professors elsewhere. They make time for you, not the other way around. The courses are tough, but due to the help centers that are available to the students, it is hard to fail. Here, you are a gentleman and follow the gentleman's rule, and in doing so the administration treats you as an adult and holds you to a higher standard.
If you come here, work hard, and give your best effort in school, athletics, or building something new, you will be rewarded. The school pushes for entrepreneurship and innovation, and will guide you the best way possible to fulfill your dreams. Unique programs. However, the Party scene has nearly died completely. More of an academic atmosphere and can become stressful at times.
