Wabash College Top Questions

The limitations in courses/majors that one can take. There are no sociology courses/major, sports medicine or kinesiology courses/major, no business courses/major, among other important courses that should probably be offered at the college that aren't.

Well, the joke is that since this is an all-male institution, the worse part is no women. Dance parties really arn't quite the same... And since the college is really in a blue-collar small town, there is not a lot of activities outside of campus. But for as small a college as this is, and the fact that there is not a lot outside of campus, there is SO much that can be achieved here academically, athletically, and in clubs that the worst part is finding time for it all. Especially with the high standards in everything.

The most frustrating thing about Wabash College is that it is impossible to participate in everything. Wabash offers so many activities and things to do, one will always busy doing something.

I would have to say the hardest thing about my school is the transition between high school and college. In high school I never really needed to work hard to earn the grades I got. At Wabash I have to work hard and study to earn the same kinds of grades. It's much more challenging.

The fact that every professor acts like you are only taking their class.

The amount of coursework, papers, research, and reading that is required to complete each course is the most frustrating thing about my school.

For me, I do not enjoy the surrounding town and environmental setting. I need more stimulation, more opportunities for fun engagement with my friends and community. Crawfordsville does not support this. Yes, it has everything you need to survive (Walmart, Kroger, fast food, and a few bars), but you can exhaust all those options in one weekend. This is my only true complaint. The school, as an academic institution is stellar: the administration/faculty listen to the students; it is superbly funded; the facilities are generally good; and the alumni network is outstanding. I have received a top-notch education.

The most frustrating thing for me is that it is a all male school and all the reading I have to do for each class.

The town is small and, though it is an excellent institution, it's location allows for a lot of boredom
