I visited when trying to make my decision on where to further my education and although I decided to attend elsewhere, I did enjoy some aspects of Freed. Such as the small town feel and the instant connections you can make with people there. I enjoyed my visit, but just couldn't see myself being there for the next 4 years.
Freed-Hardeman University is located in a small town, and it is a fairly small sized university. However, Freed does big things. There are many social clubs to choose from, and there is plenty to explore in the small town of Henderson. Freed supports Christian morals and character, and allows people to be around those of like faith. If you've researched Freed, you've probably heard of the "Freed-Hardeman bubble" (and it does exist). Freed has excellent professors who teach students difficult material in an easy to understand manner, and I believe Freed is a great place to obtain a quality education and have the college experience.
I absolutely love Freed-Hardeman. I came here for the Christian atmosphere, and it more than exceeded my expectations; especially with the faculty and staff. I've heard that if you hang with the wrong people there could be drinking and/or vaping or smoking, but I personally have never come in contact with it in my three years of going here. It really and truly is a wonderful place, especially if you get with the right people, which are the majority of people. :)
I really like the school. The food is improving, the academics are good, I am in touch with my Bible teachers and some other teachers and their events are worth dropping by the school for. The quality of the dorms are fair and the commitment to student safety is great! It is super easy to make lots of friends both with staff and other students.

I would tell my hign school self so many things about college life. First, I would say "don't sweat the small stuff". Nothing is worse than overreacting when things don't go as you plan. Most of what happens to you in life will be different from what you expected. Second, I would tell myself "be yourself". I would make sure I knew that I had so many things to offer others by being nothing more or less than what I am. Thirdly, people disappoint you and you disappoint others. Sometimes this can't even be helped, but as long as you know this ahead of time, you will save yourself a lot of long nights worrying. Lastly, I would tell myself that college is a place where you meet some of the best people you'll ever know and they will become your lifelong friends.
The lack of diversity and the closed-mindedness and conservativeness of the students and often the faculty. This is less true about the art department, so if one were looking for a group of forward-thinking people on campus, I would suggest spending time with the art faculty and students.
A conservative, private Christian university with an small and emotionally close population of students and teachers.
A southern, white, republican, conservative, evangelical would fit in perfectly at this school.
My classmates vary in so many ways as far as backgrounds, but we are all striving for excellence in our careers and most importatly excellence in the sight of God.
My school is best known for having such a great Christian environment. Academics are definitely a high priority, but not without the morals and patterns encouraged all the time. The motto of FHU is, "Learning to live and to make a living".
The best thing about FHU is how nice everyone is to one another. Even among people who may not be friends or like each other, they still respect each other and treat one another with that respect. People truly care about other people here. And the friendships you make will last a lifetime.
This school is a lot smaller than most other schools around. Also, it's a private Christian university. It's tough to find a place as small, friendly, and wholesome as Freed. Nearly everyone here is pleasant and will treat you like thier best friend, even on your first meeting.
Anyone who has even a slightly liberal view of Christianity. You will be very disappointed with the Bible teachers and their lack of love for the Bible.
I tell them about the good Bible teachers, not the ones who tell you nothing that you don't already know. They actually show the Bible as it is meant to read and bring new life to the scripture.
nothing this school is awesome
The small campus can be boring, and leaves me lonely and bored at night.
