Community

Standing behind you every step of the way.

Read what current Mastodons are saying about our campus.

Evan Snaufer

Theatre

“I love the fact that the professors are always there for you, making sure you’re getting your stuff done, making sure you’re healthy, happy, doing OK in general with school.”

Ana Briz

Interior Design

“I feel like Mastodons are massive—a massive community of college students, so we all have these connections between each other. You have friends with every major, so you learn a little bit from everybody else.”

Aschlee Holloway

Early Childhood Education

“I find random places to study on campus. I was in the hammocks the other day and four people stopped me and commented on my shoes. Everything’s just so welcoming and everyone’s so nice. I never had that at a school before.”
