    I love libraries and visit them in other cities whenever I can! I've been to this branch of the…read moreHerrick District Library a few times now and I'm always impressed with the selection of items. The parking lot in front of the building is free. Walking in the main entrance, new books are in the front and there is an info desk nearby. The new book section of any library is my favorite, and they even separate out the new cookbooks, which is my other favorite section of any library. I had fun looking at lots of great new books and then wandered around a bit. There is a great section of DVDs, video games, and even board games that you can check out. They have an extensive seed library, and I saw kits to test your home energy levels. Lots of great resources at the library beyond just books. I liked the touch screen kiosk that you can use to browse the library catalog or search for events. There is ample seating and I found a cozy spot to sit and use their free wifi to get some work done. I was impressed with the library staff as I noticed them acknowledging all patrons and handling all situations and interactions with care. I am a strong supporter and lifelong user of libraries, and this is a good one.

    Lots of great kids actives!…read more Whenever I am here there seem to be a lot of kids actives happening! I love this because they also have a good age range for kids. Will be coming back soon!

    My husband and I both grew up in families where our parents went to Hope and we attended community…read moreevents throughout our "growing years" so we had both always planned on Hope! Loved the beautiful campus and smaller size student body, loved the many social activities, (sororities and fraternities), loved the professors for the most part, and LOVED the many opportunities for Christian growth. We loved our dorms BACK THEN in the 1990's in Dykstra and Kollen. We're hearing about mold in the dorms now. Uh, you need to work on the up-keep people. Hope always likes "looking good" on the outside with beautiful landscaping, and new buildings, etc.but not as much for student living (behind the scenes). My Dad was a major contributor in helping for these things to happen. One major negative is the basketball team's lack of community. My husband played basketball and VanWieren never bothered to have relationships with the guys who did not live and breathe basketball. He was also in Chapel Choir, and that did not go over very well! Very little team bonding took place off the court. Opportunities for this did not happen. He lived with 2 other players but knew virtually nothing about the others. My husband put 4 very hard working and rewarding years into the team with me along for the ride as his girlfriend! Fun! Didn't seem to count for much. Here's the scary part...... The 3 coaches came to our wedding, left very quickly thereafter, didn't stay for the reception and are you ready for this? They gave us a gift of 29 cent baskets. Horrifying I know. The youngest coach of all never even had conversations with us when we'd see him at Christ Memorial, etc. Well, that's our take. We still enjoyed our years there, despite all of the "team stuff", and have never regretted going there. GO HOPE.

    I have to say I fell in love with this place at first sight! I graduated from college years ago and…read moreattended a liberal arts college and got the same kind of feel from this place that I got from my own alma mater. I've taken the time to examine some of the curriculum and it seems like that they still do a good job of providing a well-rounded education. The campus is absolutely gorgeous and well-kept and it is like 3 inches from one of the most attractive downtown's in the state!
