Chadron State College is a great college that provides many opportunities for their students. They have a wide option of classes, activities, and entertainment that you can get involved into. I personally enjoy the Justice Studies Department. The professors for the department are very involved and care for he well being of their students. They care more about the students’ progress and understanding of the material than a grade. The overall all academic level of the college is impressive. The students learn many things and not just in their own fields of study. Campus itself is not boring. There is always something going on. If it is not an athletic game, there are plays or other activities to go to. There is something for everyone.

Madison - 06/16/2020

I attended online and found the classes and delivery to be overall good. The teachers the choose to teach remotely really know what they are doing and seem to like their subject matter. I would say that there is not a lot of online majors but, that is true of any college. The START office is knowledgeable and will help you find the right classes and financial information for you.

Sarah - 10/07/2019

While Chadron could offer more political, cultural, and art-centered opportunities, there is a supportive atmosphere. The professors are always there for the students, whether it's for academic support or even emotional. The English department is very close-knit and supportive. Their are some very supportive clubs. I am a member of the United club, an LGBTQIA+ club and we have created a safe space for many members. Chadron also has a very open environment for discussion in class. The classes are normally the size of about 20-30 students, which is very helpful in making a supportive environment for great discussions.

When I visited Chadron State college I automatically fell in love with the environment and what Chadron Nebraska had to offer. Chadron is not a big town but it is perfectly fine there are enough places to go to enjoy time and there is a national park just right outside of Chadron. When I got on campus I was amazed at the whole college life. Walking through the school and through the dorms made me want to make it a reality. I met with a few of the teachers I will be having and they are open to help the students and they want the students to thrive and become successful adults in the real world. Chadron State College has a lot to offer and they offer it to every student who comes on campus. This makes the students and the visitors feel cared about and safe

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    Each person's message to themselves will be distinct based on the missteps and trials that someone has come across in their time, but everyone has wisdom to pass onto a former version of themselves. The trouble and perhaps the beauty in life is that we have one opportunity to pass or fail in every moment. Doc Brown is nowhere to be seen in his DeLorean. Opportunities like this scholarship are the only chance we have to reflect on where was have come and where we can go. With that comes my advice, I would mentor myself on taking every opportunity seriously, making the best decision with the information I have available, planting my foot in the ground, and implementing that decision. As a history teacher in high school, I understand what-if questions from curious students. Life; however, happens fast and never allows you to retrace your steps once they are trod. So, love life, take nothing for granted, and always strive to be the best version of yourself; however, once a decision is made and action taken, do not wish for a re-take because unlike 10th grade biology class. Life does not give retakes.
