The best thing about my school is that the staff really listens to the students problems and they try to fix it immediately. They just built the new dorms for this year and I have the privilege of living in them. At first, the students living here had no shower pressure or hot water; however, the faculty listened to our complaints and got it fixed in no time. Also, the teachers will help you after class or out side of class if you did not understand a lesson. They really do want you to succeed.

The best thing about McKendree is that my walk from one side of campus to the other takes only five minutes so it is very hard to be late which is a good thing. I also like that while walking across campus you can stop and have a conversation with many friends because of how small the school is everyone basically knows everyone. I feel safe knowing most of the people I go to school with because we are all friends.

The best thing about my school is the flexible schedule it offers. Evening classes at monthly intervals make it easy to have a full-time job, take care of a family, and still dedicate the time necessary to reach my highest potential in the classroom.

Mckendree University is a diverse, inclusive institution. What sets Mckendree apart from other universities is the flexibility and personal attention that a working, older student receives. Many older students are returning to college after many years to seek greater job opportunities in a difficult economy. Some students are simply returning to college to change careers. Mckendree University offers students the ability to take most of their classes online. They also offer students opportunities to network with other students in the same job field. I would not choose to attend anywhere else.

Most of the time when you are walking on campus you can recognize almost every face you pass. This makes the environment extremely comfortable.
