While at StMU I met so many different types of people-this school is for everyone. There are extracurriculars for everyone including and not limited to: athletics, academic clubs, honor societies, theatre arts, community service, LGBTQ organizations, sororities, fraternities, clubs coinciding with majors, and religious organizations of various types. While there is a lot to become involved in, the campus enrollment is around 4,000 undergraduate students. This makes class size small and gives students the oppourtunity to form invaluable professional relationships with their professors.
