Attending a small private Christian Colleges is probably one of the best decisions that I have ever made in my life. I never thought I would be the girl to go to a small school and love it, but in the past year, I have grown so much as a person thanks to this little bitty school. Here are a few reasons why I love attending a small school:

1. I never go anywhere without seeing someone that I know.

Weather I am in the cafeteria or walking around campus, I always will see one of my friends or a person that I know. There is always someone I know to smile at and say "hey" to or to grab for a quick Wal-Mart run.

2. Learning is fun.

Since my college only has about 500 students, total my class size is super small compared to other colleges. It makes learning a lot more fun because there is a constant interaction with the professor and with my classmates.

3. Small class size.

Having a small class is very beneficial to me because I get to have a lot of one on one time with my professor. Also, I am able to get more help from my professor rather than I would at a larger college. They are able to meet with you in their office and actually have a conversation with you because there are not other students waiting to speak to him or her.

4. I'm not just a number.

At larger colleges most students feel as if they are only a number in the eyes of their college's staff, but I love having a relationship with all of my professors and even the president.

5. Small campus size.

Unlike at larger colleges I have a short walk to class or anywhere on campus nothing is too far to walk to.

6. Syllabus day

Not sure how larger universities work, but syllabus week at our school is the best! We literally are handed the syllabus and dismissed.

7. More club opportunities

Without thousands of students trying to get into the clubs, it's a lot easier to join. Also, the clubs are smaller so they are more fun to be in because you're interacting more.

8. Leadership positions

Anyone has the opportunity to have a leadership position. Many people can even have multiple leadership positions.

9. Athletes are treated as equal

Athletes are not put on a higher pedestal than all the other students. They are treated the same way in the classroom, as well.

10. Alumni are very involved

There is usually at least one alumni on campus always.

11. Campus feels like home

You always have someone to support you no matter where you are. Whenever something big happens on campus, the whole school comes together like one big family.
