Missouri State University-Springfield Top Questions

Describe your favorite campus traditions.

Christopher

I believe my school is best known for its all male acapella group, The Beartones

Travis

While I believe that the University of New Hampshire is primarily known for the excessive partying and drinking conducted by the students, I feel that it is also well known for being a school that provides a wide spectrum of courses and majors to allow students a chance to find their calling. Entering college, I knew I had an interest in writing and literary study, and the diverse courses helped me to finally decide to pursue a teaching career in English. The faculty and staff are also well known for being knowledgeable in their fields of study.

Stephanie

My school is best known for it's dedication to the arts, specializing in fine arts.

Chelsea

The school is a public institution, but seems to operate like a private one. One thing I have to say about this school is that there was way too much religious influence. MSU is located in Springfield, which is on the Bible Belt. I felt like religion, specifically Christianity, was brought into the classroom a bit too much. Many of the Christian holidays were honored, while those of the minority religions were not. Furthermore, this bias led to little to no diversity on the campus. Most of the students are white/middle class from rural areas.
