    Centenary College is a remarkable academic environment. In my experience, professors really care about their subject and their students. Overall, they are incredibly approachable and always interested in helping you learn and eager to discuss issues that are of related to classroom work. Professors will work you hard, but the work is meaningful, productive and worthwhile. Classes are small, allowing for involved student-professor and student-student interaction. Students themselves are bright, generally interested in learning and care about their subjects. Centenary College is a liberal arts college, and discussions in the classroom frequently involve related subjects and connections made to other classes. It's definitely an intellectual community. read full review
