They encourage you to form your own ideas.鈥� These 鈥渇riendly and approachable鈥� professors 鈥渃ontinue to teach outside of the classroom.鈥� 鈥淭hey welcome oneon-one time鈥o further develop understanding.鈥� Students have praise for the education they are receiving saying, 鈥渃oming out of Millsaps I will be fully prepared for grad school. My professors not only lecture, but they turn the material into hands-on learning opportunities,鈥� and 鈥淚 seriously respect my school鈥檚 standard of excellence in hiring people who are wonderful at their jobs.鈥� Besides 鈥済reat professors,鈥� the school offers 鈥渁 prestigious business school,鈥� 鈥渁bundant study abroad programs,鈥� and 鈥渟trong Southern hospitality and heritage.鈥� The school鈥檚 small size provides opportunities to receive 鈥渁 top-notch education, while also getting to play sports and be in clubs.鈥� Although Millsaps may not be affordable for everyone, it 鈥渟trives to be generous with scholarships.鈥� One student was pleased to report, 鈥淭hey offered the most financial assistance by far.鈥� Although student surveys were mostly positive, like this one: 鈥淢illsaps College provides the ideal learning atmosphere for liberal arts studies where they teach us how to think and not what to think,鈥� there were complaints about 鈥渢he Internet and networking capabilities,鈥� and 鈥渢he cafeteria is an area where great improvement is needed.鈥�

Is there a typical Millsaps student? Some students think so: 鈥淭he typical student at Millsaps was an over-involved, cool nerd in high school. We throw ourselves into sports, clubs, Greek life, and community service like it鈥檚 our job. It鈥檚 how we thrive.鈥� 鈥淪tudents fit in by being involved in Greek life and other organizations.鈥� 鈥淎 typical student is involved in many activities from sports to community service clubs. Student interests are diverse, and the student body in general is very friendly and interactive.鈥� Another student disagrees, 鈥淭here is no 鈥榯ypical student鈥� really鈥攖he most common thread is a desire to change the world (usually, with a stop at graduate school).鈥�

鈥淪tudents at Millsaps think about their classwork first and foremost. After that, we think about hanging out with friends and having fun.鈥� The campus is 鈥渟o beautiful and filled with cozy spots that many students spend a lot of their time outside.鈥� 鈥淲hile most schools have 鈥榯he quad鈥� where students hang out between classes, Millsaps has 鈥楾he Bowl.鈥� It is a beautiful area of grass and trees in the center of campus.鈥� But one student notes that there is still room for improvement. 鈥淭he campus is beautiful, but the insides of the buildings need a serious upgrade. Every time I walk into a building, I feel like I鈥檝e been transported back to the seventies.鈥� Although 鈥渕ost of the upperclassmen dorms are amazing,鈥� the 鈥渇reshman dorms are a little sketchy.鈥� On campus 鈥渢here are concerts and fun days all throughout the semester.鈥� 鈥淭here are parties at the fraternity houses, and鈥ome really cool things to do from concerts to oxygen bars to laser tag.鈥� 鈥淚 would definitely call it a 鈥榩arty school,鈥� despite the tough academics.鈥� 鈥淭here is a lot of partying on the weekends but almost everyone still manages to get studying finished.鈥� Students also point out, 鈥淲e don鈥檛 have to drink to have fun at Millsaps, though. You can always find a friend to hang out with, go to the movies, shop, or find a new great place to eat. The Millsaps curriculum even makes study groups fun (for the most part), believe it or not.鈥� Off campus, students venture into Jackson where 鈥渢here are great restaurants.鈥�
