Carthage College Top Questions

I brag about everything about Carthage, from the amazing education that I am receiving here to the breath taking view that I have when I look out my window. I am very proud of the school that I go to, and I make sure that I tell everyone all about it every chance that I get.

Many of the instructors in my field (Musical Theatre) are either well known or have accomplished much in the field. I believe the staff here is very talented and well rounded.

I brag about how much free entertainment is provided at my school. We may be a private liberal arts college, but the musicians and comedians that are brought here always show us a great time to break away from our studies. Some entertainment is even put on by the students; our theater department contains many talent actors and actresses. Art and graphic design majors also showcase their work, and dance minors put on recitals periodically. Friends of students are also welcome to come to see the free shows, which is also a benefit of my school.

A smaller school has given me more personal relationships, rather then an overwhelming huge university where I feel like another number.

I like that there are only around 2500 students and a very lerge sense of community. Also, I have discovered that the professors are wonderful and willing to get to know the students outside of the classroom.

That is a vintage campus with new technology starting to take over but yet has that old-style feel being right next to the lake and the city of Kenosha. Very accessible facilities for on-campus housing and off-campus housing.

I love watching my friend's jaws drop after telling them that my biggest class size this semester was twenty-five. They all have huge lecture halls with at least 200 students in the room. They especially don't like how I have actual professors teaching my class, and if I ever have questions I am able to ask right in class. All of my professors even gave me their personal cell numbers to call them if I need help. That is something you could never get at a large school, and it makes Carthage unique.

The community on campus is great. Everyone whether it be students, staff, or workers are very friendly and helpful. I like knowing a lot of people and being on a small campus because it is like a second family.

When looking for a college, I highly doubt that one is looking for a place where the campus is an undesirable place to live, the people are unfriendly, and the teachers are uninterested in your welfare. I knew that that's not what I was looking for. whenever looking for the place that I would be for the next four or more years. At Carthage College, I found a gorgeous campus full of great people that are full of life, and teachers with a great passion for teaching and bringing endless opportunites to students yearning for knowledge.

When telling people about Carthage, the first thing that comes to mind is the beautiful campus; because it is located in the middle of a forest preserve on the edge of Lake Michigan, it provides a quiet and inspiring learning environment.

The beauty of the campus' floral arrangements, the nice library, and the view of Lake Michigan.

Well, I brag the most about my fellow classmates and the campus. Everyone is very welcoming here and you feel very comfortable walking around campus. I've made so many friends and its easy to get along with everyone. The campus isnt very big so it is easy to become affiliated with everyone. You see familiar faces all the time, rather than at a large university where you may see someone once a day.

When I tell friends about my school I don't usually brag but I tell them about the friends that I have made at school and how they would really like them. I tend to choose similar friends out of different groups so I feel that all the people that I am friends with can also be friends.

When I tell my friends about Carthage, I mention the benefits of learning by having constructive communication between the instructors and students.

When I tell my friends about my college I brag a lot about how I get a lot of one on one attention and that there are no more than 40 students in my class at the most. Usually my classes are a lot smaller where you learn a lot more and get a lot more individual help. Also, my school is is right on Lake Michigan! It is a beautiful campus and I look out to Lake Michigan everyday from my room. Everyone is so friendly even all the professors and it is such a fun campus!

When I brag to my freinds about my school, I talk about the view. The view is wonderful. Lake MIchigan is right there and there are benches where you can sit and just relax when it is a nice day. I love having the lake right on campus; it is very peaceful. I know many of my friends who left are jealous because I still have the lake!

I brag most about the academic success that I am achieving at Carthage College. I feel that it is perfectly designed college for a student like myself. The class sizes are small which allows me to get the attention from the teachers that I need.

Carthage College is a great school because you get the best of both worlds - a big city curriculum with a small town experience. All the teachers I have had so far have pushed me to do my very best, but were also merciful and eager to help me succeed.

That I have recieved a full tuition scholarship

I tell every one of the amazing experiences I have had at Carthage. I am double majoring in math and music, with a minor in secondary education. At any other university, this would be impossible, but at Carthage, I will be able to graduate with this course load in only four years, plus student teaching. Also, my experiences travelling are not paralleled by any of my friends at other universities, as I went to Japan my freshman year during J-term, am preparing to travel to Africa in less than one week, and plan on returning to Japan next year.
