For incoming first-year students at Juniata College, the Inbound Retreats offered each August are a great way to meet other students and glimpse college life without attending classes. The school has 鈥渆xcellent science programs,鈥� and a few students say that there need to be 鈥渕ore resources [for] nonscience programs.鈥� However, even students not majoring in science get access to some great facilities, with theater students exclaiming, 鈥淭he theater program is unlike any other in country鈥� and praising their new Halbritter Center for the Performing Arts. At Juniata, students have the option to design their educational plan with the college鈥檚 Program of Emphasis, while those interested in a specific established program鈥攕omething like accounting or chemistry鈥攃an use an existing designated Program of Emphasis. All students have the option of working with two faculty advisors. The 鈥渙utstanding education鈥� is built on a bedrock of strong faculty members who offer 鈥渟uperior education through meaningful personal interaction.鈥� Most class sizes tend to be fairly small, and though some classes are 鈥渢ough to get in to because there is only one professor for a certain subject,鈥� many agree that they love the attention that each professor gives and that the teachers 鈥渞eally go out of their way鈥� to help students succeed and 鈥渧alue student success as much as the student does.鈥� Success, however, doesn鈥檛 come without a price at Juniata, with a large amount of the students agreeing that their 鈥済ood grades do not come without effort,鈥� but that the class load is 鈥渃hallenging, but not overwhelming.鈥�
