[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD went to Berry College and it was a wonderful experience.  She graduated a few years ago, but still returns, occasionally, for alumni events.

Although it has a pretty small enrollment, one of their bragging points is that they have the world’s largest campus, so there are ample opportunities to enjoy nature.  I also had the impression that the teachers sincerely cared about their students and are actively supportive of them.

There is a very strong sense of community and tradition.  While their emphasis on “education of the head, heart, and hands” may seem trite and may be echoed in other schools, at Berry, the students actually embrace it.  They have a student work program which has been carefully structured to offer students the chance to choose from a wide range of meaningful work, with progressive responsibility, so that a student can graduate with significant work experience.  While not required, most Berry students participate in the work program at some time.  There is also a strong emphasis on community service.

I love hearing this.  Berry isn't discussed much on this forum and it should be.  And what a gorgeous campus![/quote]
