My least favorite part about the school is the social life and student body, although your mileage may vary. I felt bored and lonely, perhaps because I'm not into the perpetually cheesy extracurricular activities offered or in any religious groups. The students were decent enough, but I felt like I never fit in. They're pretty stereotypically small-town Christian--so they're very friendly, but I could never relate or make strong connections.Some people like the surrounding town, although if you're from a larger city like I am, you will probably find it very, very dull. Not much in the way of things to do or places to eat... and everything closes on Sunday. I left town almost every weekend for the whole four years.
Negatives
-All student must live on campus(Doesn't sound bad but will hate this policy after 4 hours)
-Various Facility problems (26,000 acres and it's still hard sometimes to find a place to park, 1.2 million dollar waterfall built, but computer lab printers rarely work, have paper, ink and change for printing certain amounts. This list could continue.)
Weak Programs (Saw various programs around the school fairly weak academically with some rude staff (Comm, Music/Arts)
-Sports(Sports are relatively weak in most areas)
-Alcohol(Dry Campus)
-Curfew rules(
-Police(Campus Safety spends 95% of its time busting curfew/dorm violations, small parties with alcohol and facebook profiling rather than facilitating any safety and protecting of students that are expected of any law enforcement authorities.)
-COST!
-Academic administration (Relatively out of touch with Students concerns and interest)
-Housing(There is a increase number of incoming students and no housing for them. This is exacerbated by not allowing students to live off campus)
