Carthage College Top Questions

Someone who is not even willing to go to the required freshman courses.

I don't believe there is a specific type of person who shouldn't attend this school. This school is a smaller campus, so a person who is looking for a large and diverse campus probably shouldn't go here. This campus is very friendly, so a person who doesn't want to meet new people probably shouldn't come to this campus either. Other than that, there isn't a type of person that shouldn't attend this school.

People who aren't dedicated to learning and devoting time to classes and homework.

Someone who likes big classes and partying.

The type of person who should avoid Carthage College would have to be someone who likes big classes. At Carthage, nobody remains merely a number and a body. Students are known on a first name basis, not just some anonymous person.

Mainly people from the Northwest suburbs of chicago, and alomost all caucasion students

Someone who might be looking for a big ten experience should not attend Carthage. It is a very small school and similar to a small town, everyone knows everyone. Someone who is not willing to get involved should not attend Carthage either because it is a very small campus and if a person doesnt do anything they are going to sit in their room and do nothing.

A person who is inactive in discussions shouldn't attend this school as all classes are based on discussion and professor interaction.

Anyone

Someone who thrives in large classes or prefers lectures to participation would not fit well at Carthage. This may go for any campus, but someone who's primary focus is to party shouldn't attend this school either. Class attendance is necessary at Carthage as well because if you miss too many classes your paticipation grade goes down which will lower your overall grade. If you prefer to skip class and get notes from someone else Carthage is probably not for you.
