    • What is your overall opinion of this school?

       

      The best thing about C of C is the campus. I have been to many colleges and universities all over the south and C of C, in my opinion, is one of the best because of it's historical importance, it's awesome appearance, it's location, it's size, and it's administration. The campus is small, but has a big feel to it because of the student population. Since C of C is located in the center of Charleston, people never run out of things to do. Most of the students that like to go to the beach like to go to Folly, which is only a 15-20 minute drive from downtown.

    • What are the academics like at your school?

       

      Most of the classes that I have taken at C of C have been interesting. Be sure to look on Rate My Professor before taking certain classes because there are some professors that are not good at passing their knowledge off to their students. Many of the people I hang out with have many "In depth" conversations outside of class. These conversations usually include topics that they have learned from certain professors or what is currently being aired on CNN. Haha, the most unique class I have taken so far at C of C is Human Sexuality. The class isn't as perverted as I thought it would be. The knowledge I gained from the class was very interesting and helpful. I think that the Human Sexuality class should be required for all students to take.

    • Describe the students at your school.

       

      C of C has an awesome student body. Different types of students sometimes interact with each other. I guess that it all depends on the individual and the people he or she meets. Students could be more involved with the Student Government Association.

    • What are the most popular student activities/groups?

       

      There are many activities to get involved with. The Greek Life at C of C is good. There are many different physical activities to become a part of. Unfortunately, there isn't a football team. But there is always the beach to look forward to.

    • What is the stereotype of students at your school?

       

      I guess a stereotype I have heard about C of C is the girl to guy ratio, which is about 3 to 1. Another stereotype that I have heard about C of C students is that they are mostly hippies.

    • Is the stereotype of students at your school accurate?

       

      Pay attention fellas, the girl to guy ratio is correct. However, the stereotype about the majority of C of C students being hippies is false.
