My experiences at Wesleyan have truly impacted myPsychology
My experiences at Wesleyan have truly impacted my life positively. Not only was I prepared academically for graduate school, I also had a great time. I would not have traded those 4 years for anything. Yes, the school is not perfect - the facilities are not top-notch, but this is college. If you're expecting a 5 star hotel, go elsewhere. But, if you're looking for a great education; educated and caring professors; and a decent social life, apply to Wesleyan. I often fondly recall the memories, life lessons, and great times I had in my "Home Among the Hills."

Question
The people are the core to this college,BrightComputer Science
The people are the core to this college, they are both what holds it together and tries to rip it apart. Some faculty/staff are excellent while others are absolutely horrible and will drive you away from departments entirely. If I hadn't made such good friends here I would transfer ASAP, though perhaps we are such good friends because of that incredible amount of crap we had to go through as freshman. Simply put, the college is not worth the money, and it keeps getting more expensive. They also nickel and dime you to death.

If you happen to go for a tour, ask to see some of the dorms they DON'T show you, which is essentially every male and coed dorm. I doubt they'll show you because they're crap. Nothing is repaired when it is broken, very rarely are things properly cleaned. The campus itself can be pretty at times but I would not call it exceptional at all. Simply put, the more involved I become with this college the more dismayed, angry and utterly disappointed I am with it.

It is a lovely school where students are encouraged to excel and are given every opportunity to do so. I grew up in Buckhannon, where WVWC is located, so I have a great attachment to my alma mater.
