STUDENTS

College is a fabulously influential time in one's life; it is a chance for personal growth and development. Undergraduates continue to learn their purpose and develop the indispensable skills to be a thriving member of society. But learning is deeper than what one learns in a classroom environment - the campus dialogue, the nugget of wisdom gained from a tenured instructor, the exposure to a different perspective. As such, finding a diverse college greatly enhances what you gain from your time spent at university.
