Library Computers Crowded Almost All the Time
Most people have their own computers, but if you're on campus and you forgot to print something, your best bet is to go to one of the computer labs in Northwood or Science & Engineering. There is WiFi access all over campus and only in a few areas of the library (Reading Room, Reference Center, and group project area downstairs), but there is no WiFi in the desks of the main book stacks.

Talk the Talk, Walking the Walk Is a Different Story
Geneva talks a big game when it comes to being an ethnincally "diverse" campus. Everyone is respected, however, there are a lot of cliques. The International Student Organization (ISO) does a good job of trying to integrate all students into their activities, though. Being a Christian college, the majority of the students are professing Christians, but not necessarily all are practicing Christians. You will find all walks of life at Geneva.

Do Well on Your Sats/Acts to Get High Academic Scholarships
About 95% of all incoming students receive academic scholarships, that are pretty decent. There are 4 levels of academic scholarships that range from $7,500; $10,000; $12,000; and $15,000 a year. If you don't maintain a 3.0 GPA, though, you'll lose your academic scholarship.

Parties Are Off-Campus
If you're the party type, you have to be friends with the right people. If it happens on campus, it's kept EXTREMELY hush-hush because there are huge consequences if you get caught. Most partiers that I know have friends who live off-campus, and they party there. Pittsburgh is about 40 minutes away if you really wanted to find some nightlife. Other than that, there's not much around here.

Great Education & Profs, Administration Should Let Students Have More Say
I feel like I am going to be extremely prepared for grad school when I graduate; I am challenged more than enough in my academic life. However, I feel like the administration doesn't allow the students to voice their opinions enough. Sure, we chose to attend a school that follows certain religious traditions, but not allowing us to host formal dance events or to live off-campus is ridiculous and should be up to the students.
