Student Responses to Review Topic: Am I Enjoying Being Here

I am
a current student here
Yes, I love the experience because I thought it would be weird being 4 hours away from home. It is good, though, and I think I am able to stay more focused academically. Staying on-campus seems to help me also get to places better. I am enjoying the experience so far.

The campus looks pretty decent. It is small so everything is farely close. However, it has too many stairs. For a small school it is a pain having to carry books and walking to your next class in the heat having to walk up tons of stairs outside.
