Greenville, Illinois is basically located in the middle of some corn fields. While the town is really nice, its small size can be frustrating. Greenville has all of the basic needs: a grocery store, banks, small department stores, etc. However, the closest Wal-Mart is twenty miutes away in either direction. While we are only about forty-five minutes from St. Louis, the town itself lacks many of the stores and conviences that students from larger towns, like myself, are accustomed to.
The worst thing about Greenville, from my perspective, is the level of competition in the Theatrical Arts. With a limited number of people involved in theater, there are less people to go up against. However, this does mean that many students can participate if they want to.
I think the worst thing about my school is the lack of activities on campus. It seems as if half the students go home every weekend because there is absolutely nothing to do on campus. I think more students would stay on campus if there were fun and interesting activities planned. It would be great if there were student-planned and student-led activities as well. If the students are allowed to create their own fun, they will be excited to invite their friends to stay over the weekend to enjoy the fun with them.
There is not enough study space. The library is nice, but we would like to see some place that could be open 24-hours instead of closing at 10pm. This is the time when we start studying!
The worst thing I consider about my school is the cost. Since it is a small, private school, the funding is not as great as other state universities. I love my college, but I have had to take out loans and work two jobs to pay my way through.
Nothing honestly, as I am not a picky person, and I just go to class and leave.
The worst thing about this school is the rules. The lifestyle statement and restrictions sometimes make me feel less than adult.
I wish my music program had the right type of teachers teaching the classes.
How the people around campus and very conservitive and there needs to be more girls.
Although Greenville is a Christian school, the administration often runs too much like a business, instead of a Christian school.
nothing around it
On preview days they put out better food so as to almost trick the previews into thinking we get the good food all the time.
Greenville is stuck on keeping their self image up, if you don't fit the mold then you feel out of place and unacceptabled to a certain degree.
The school is very conservative and close minded. You have to follow a lot of silly rules for the sake of religion and most of the students come from very conservative backgrounds.
Greenville can be seen as close-minded about things since we are primarily a Christian school. Often our ethics don't match what actually happens here, and the spiritual aspect is not as high quality as some people would like, and too strict for others. We also play up our CCM program, and we get lots of freshmen rockstar-wanna-be's, who then leave when they discover it is harder than it looks.
The food, and possibly the workout center
The worst thing about Greenville College is that, because it is a relatively small school, many of the departments are limited in faculty and resources. While the two major departments (Education and Music) are as successfull as any other school, smaller departments such as Social Work and Political Science (as well as newer fields like Forensics and Criminal Justice) sometimes lose students to bigger schools with better programs and career connections.
