    I am reaching out because I couldn't help but need to give acknowledgement when I've experienced…read moresomething that is nothing short of above and beyond in my last call with Bruce, who I just had the extreme honor of talking to regarding help for my degree completion in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have never had such an attentive, caring human being discuss with me in detail for over 45 minutes all the concerns I had to finish my degree in Mental Health Counseling here at Liberty. He lifted a huge weight today off of me and made my whole completion plan clear as day, all the while I felt genuine enthusiasm and desire from him for me to succeed on this path. I have never been so encouraged and supported by someone I didn't even know. His work with Liberty is truly his passion and his desire for excellence is genuine and palpable with the students he is helping. I've gotten a second wind from him and a reaffirmation of my passion to complete my mental health counseling degree and to help others the way he helped me. He truly is a gem of a human being and has kept me a lifelong Liberty student through his service, attention to detail and his care. You have a very talented and exceptional individual in your midst and he is a treasure.

    I enrolled in Liberty University's DBA program about three years ago after reading that students do…read morenot have to be Christian to attend. While that may be true, I found that nearly every course incorporated biblical studies and Christian perspectives into the curriculum. As someone who practices Buddhism and had no knowledge of Christianity, I found it difficult to relate to the course content and meet those expectations. After careful consideration, I decided to withdraw from the program because it was not the right academic fit for me. This was a personal decision based on my background and learning preferences, not on the quality of the university itself. I believe Liberty University is an excellent choice for students who are Christian or who are comfortable with a curriculum that integrates biblical teachings throughout the program. However, prospective students from other faiths or those seeking a secular business education should carefully review the curriculum before enrolling to ensure it aligns with their expectations.

    This college does not care about its students; from mushrooms growing out of showers to the ceiling…read morefalling in the middle of Main Hall, it is not maintained at all. Do not get me started on the dining experience here at Randolph College. In the past three years alone the quality and variety of the food has dropped tremendously. Students get excited when the food is fully cooked or not rotting in its place; at best the food is unappetizing and at worst it has sent students to the hospital. To alleviate the pressure on Skeller (the other dining option aside from Cheatham Dining Hall) they removed most of the options and raised all the prices so that students are forced to eat at the dining hall or starve. The professors are on average decent, at worst cooky and unorganized, but most are decent with decent classes that prepare students for their fields. Student life is ok, but worsening due to the surplus of underclassmen and lack of facilities to suit them. Local churches have begun to open their parking lots because there isn't enough room for all the students and staff to park. Freshmen are also being stacked into dorm rooms like sardine, with a few freshmen sharing a double with three people. Meanwhile, the science building is getting renovated instead of the condemned dorm hall-which is where they are moving the offices of the science professors. The rules about who is allowed to be a commuter and who is forced to live in the dingy housing (that comes with the expensive for what dining plan) are ridiculous. I have had friend who literally got married to save the money they were wasting on noisy neighbors and starving nights.

    I went to this college back when it was Randolph-Macon Woman's college. It took everything out of…read moreme not to transfer. I've never experienced racism more in my entire life, than at this "liberal" college. From an admissions counselor asking me to speak to a white Puerto Rican from the island, assuming we had a lot in common, even though I'm a brown Puerto Rican from NYC, three generations removed, and can't speak Spanish, to a professor arguing with me telling me I'm black, when most Latinos are mixed with natives and Europeans. This is just the administration, this doesn't include the countless racist encounters with my small minded, small town peers. The white kids hang out with the white kids, the blacks with the blacks and everyone else from other countries are grouped together, because among most of the whites there is still fear and intolerance. This place is far from woke and is under the guise of white liberal savior.
