Wabash College Top Questions

This topic is where we, as Wabash students, get labeled as elitists. We feel our academics at Wabash College compare on a toughness level with anyone in the country. This is where we get into trouble with fellow college students that go to state schools. I do not believe for an instant that they are challenged as much as I am at Wabash. Maybe some are in the different schools that the large universities offer. (i.e. engineering) We have 900 students roughly that attend Wabash College. As a freshman my average class size is 19. Every professor knows your name and knows whether you attend class. Can state schools claim that? Students participate in class discussions and debates. Wabash teaches you to think critically and the liberal arts educates its students to be well-versed in a wide range of topics.

Without a doubt think that we have the best cirriculum of any small school in Indiana. We study hard. Truthfully we do. Our classes put us to a good test and make sure we are getting the education that we are paying for.

Acaemics are very rigorous here at Wabash. It is not an easy place to be, however, it is completely worth it. Our 10-1 student/faculty ratio make us unique because of our abilities to get to know our professors. Profs have invited me over for dinner at there homes. There, I will sit with my prof's wife and children, at their kitchen table, and have an awesome home-cooked meal. I've stayed for over 3 hours one time, and not once did we ever talk about school. Even the President of the college knows my mother's and my two older brother's names, and he's only met my mother once. It's a unique place to be. Everybody knows everybody.
