    Were I not so far away, I would certainly return for these fancy graduation speakers they've been booking-- Obama, Colbert, & now, Bill Clinton.

    I am very happy that my younger son also chose Monmouth. He will be an accounting major and is…read moreexcited to join the football team. His older brother just graduated (after 7 semesters) with a double major in Chemistry and Math and a minor in Physics. He will start his PhD in Chemistry at the University of Iowa this fall. The faculty in Monmouth's chemistry department was very supportive and the small class sizes and close relationships with professors provided exactly the setting that allowed my son to reach his full potential and thrive. Fortunately, he knew right from the start that he wanted to be at a small liberal arts college in a rural setting. It definitely was the right choice for him and he had a very full, well-rounded college experience, not just academically but also as a track athlete and a member of the pipe band. As a mother, it is reassuring to know that my younger son will be going to a place where staff and faculty are genuinely interested in the well-being and growth of their students and I look forward to continuing our family's connection with Monmouth.

    I attended Monmouth College to obtain my bachelor's degree. What I got was an experience that…read morechanged my life. Before I left the campus on my visit, I knew that his where I wanted to go to school. I met professors who taught me far beyond the curriculum. Being at a small school I got to know my professors and classmates more than I would have in a large lecture hall. They became mentors and partners and helped to make the most out of my schooling. I learned just as much outside of class as I did in class. The opportunities to learn, grow, and experience at Monmouth College are too numerous to list. For example I learned contract language while serving as President of ASAP (Association for Student Activity Programming). Living on campus at a small liberal arts college was an experience that I wouldn't give up for anything. I am proud to give back to my Alma mater twenty years after graduating. It's great to be a Scot! I cannot recommend Monmouth College highly enough!

    Where do I begin? I am currently enrolled at this institution and the only reason I do not transfer…read moreout is because I have one semester left. DO NOT ATTEND THIS SCHOOL! First of all, administration is circling the toilet. It takes WEEKS to get an email response from anyone in any department. Billing, financial aid, advising, etc. Calling is not better because you either get a voicemail or someone that has absolutely no business answering the call due to an utter lack of knowledge surrounding the department which results in a "call back" that never happens. Since enrolling, I have had three classes added to my graduation plan that popped out of nowhere. I have also had teachers leave mid semester, one of which affected my grade so badly, I had to drop the class. When I reached out about getting the course refunded, they stated it was past the deadline. I explained that I only had to drop because of THEIR TURNOVER issue and they still did not refund me. Mind you, I have dropped other courses past the deadline and understood I was ineligible for a refund. This, however, was 100% the fault of the school and should have been treated as such. I am not sure who monitors the curriculum, but there are professors on complete power trips that literally drown you in coursework. College curriculum should be challenging and teach you about time management, but this is another level entirely. There are professors who have a complex assignment due every single day. Juggling this with four other classes can be extremely overwhelming and no one seems to care. I enrolled as an online student because I do not live in the area. At first, this was fine. However, over the past year, they have moved to "live streaming" courses for most of my classes which is so incredibly inconvenient! I'm in a completely different time zone and have had to make arrangements at my work just to attend courses. The whole point of being an online student was so I could attend school around my work schedule! Finally, the utilization of respondus lockdown browser for non-degree specific courses is ridiculous! I major in accounting, so having it as a requirement for accounting courses makes sense. But why do I need it for a marketing course?? Stupid. This school is a complete joke and I cannot wait to be finished with this institution so I never have to look back. I will be dissuading every single person I know in the area from this school as I have siblings and cousins graduating soon.

    I was an art student at this university and I was subjected to non stop bullying and was openly…read morecalled slurs by other students, those students were then rewarded for that behavior by being asked to join the honors are fraternity. The Art courses also would allow non majors into the classes and would allow them to not do their work, and would force the class to sit and waste class time not learning so the lazy students could make up their work during class time.

Unfortunately, the reality was very different and the decision turned out to be a major mistake. Students are treated more like high schoolers than college adults, with policies and oversight that feel controlling and out of step with what most families expect from a university. The most alarming issue, however, is how the school appears to handle rape and sexual assault. From what we witnessed, the system seems to protect perpetrators far more than it protects victims. Individuals accused of serious misconduct appear to face minimal consequences, while victims can feel ignored, blamed, or even vilified for speaking up. That kind of environment discourages reporting and raises serious concerns about student safety. Drugs and alcohol are also clearly present on campus, yet the systems meant to monitor and address these problems seem ineffective. We did ask questions about safety and student well-being before enrolling and, unfortunately, believed the reassurances we were given. In hindsight, the reality did not match the rhetoric. Overall, the college does a very good job marketing itself and creating a positive first impression. Unfortunately, our experience suggests that the reality behind the brochures is far less reassuring. Families considering this school should ask difficult questions about student safety, accountability, and how serious incidents are actually handled.
