Open-Minded Missouri
It has little diversity, the typical mid west population but it does draw some interesting people from around the country or exchange students that have added a lot to the growth of Truman. It appears liberal but these circles must often be searched for as the main student body seems to be mid-conservative. Women out number the men and have a strong and intelligent presence on campus and an environment is well established that is dedicated in the exception and personal growth of all types of students of all sexual orientations, sex, race, or economic background.

Top Notch Small Town Night Life
The town has a few dependable bars where there will always be people you know but it really exceeds in what the town provides for students of all ages. Besides the safe yet extremely wild greek scene there is always an exciting venue or community center that provides live music, raves, poetry slams , or whatever the seem to be interested in. Besides that there is a beautiful country scene where barn fire parties and out in the country blues festivals make Kirksville quite exceptional.

Safety and Support
Drinking and drug usage each have large scenes for such a small town. Since it is small there tends to be an easier atmosphere to meet really great people in a nights adventure and for those who hit it to hard people are very willing to help and make sure that everyone remains safe.
