College of Saint Benedict Top Questions

What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about your school?

Theresa

We probably have the greatest dining center ever at St. Ben's. As first year students and sophomores, Bennies have an unlimited meal plan, which if you have no self-control is probably bad. There is usually pretty good variety, and the quality of the food is great. We also have multiple coffee shops between St. Ben's and St. John's--one of them even serves Caribou Coffee and you can use your flex dollars from your meal plan there.

I usually express a love for my college by describing the close-knit community of Bennies and Johnnies. Although two separate campuses, you would never realize so because of the strong bond between the two. Bennies are intelligent, smiley, and down-to-earth. Johnnies are chivalrous, charismatic, and driven. Together they create a dynamic atmosphere that I assure can neither be found nor recreated at any other college campus. I can confidently say I am proud to be a Bennie.

How friendly and helpful everyone is here. Also the success rate of students who graduate and either find a job right away, or start grad school right away. The faculty here wants you to succeed more than anything, and they are absolutely willing to help you in any way that they can.

Nicole

There are two campuses so it's like I'm going to two different schools. When I am bored of one location, I can go to the other!
