I like William Jewell College so far. I'm currently a sophomore music major, and I find the workload to be manageable. Last year, because of Covid, many of my classes were online, but my professors were very flexible and handled the change well. All of my professors seem to be very inclusive and value the life experiences of those who have different backgrounds. There seems to be a big focus on greek life, so those who are unaffiliated, including me, feel somewhat left out. Last year, I lived in Mathes, a first year dorm. It was very nice, as it was renovated in 2018. This year, I live in Semple, an upperclassmen dorm, and my experience hasn't been as great. I barely know any of my hallmates, and everyone tends to keep to themselves. The building itself could definitely use an upgrade. The floor in my room is made up of adhesive carpet squares, many of which are coming up. It's also difficult to keep my room one temperature. Overall, my experience at Jewell has been great.
I would say that this school is wonderful academically especially if you are a Nursing, Business or ACT-IN major. Many professors are personable and passionate about what they teach. All of them have their open office hours. However, Greek life does dominate social scene and people are very cliquish. Students are friendly but closed minded. If you are a minority or an international student, it would be difficult making friends.
I felt that this school is very conservative. The ideal student at this school would be being "white" and "christian". I was there for two years but transferred since I couldn't really grow as an individual.

I've had such a good experience with William Jewell College if you have any doubts about going to a small college I hope my answer will help. The small class sizes help so much in having an engaging learning experience, the way the Jewell community cares and supports their students and faculty makes the school experience so welcoming and enjoyable, and with all the connections you make with other students and teachers will last a lifetime and will be so fun along the way.
