Hiram is a small school with a small school feel. Everything isn't the best of the best, but it's beautiful and close knit. Most people here are very kind and helpful. The Professors are all fantastic and willing to help in any way they can.

There isn't much opportunity, unless you are buddy-buddy with profs. Not many choices in instructors, so you're stuck. Food isn't all that great, nor are there any choices. They make it sound great but honestly everyone is somewhat miserable here. Not much diversity or clubs. Greek life is bizarre. Dorms are gross, broken cement in showers. Ugghh!!
