Read Hundreds of Quotes from Denison University Students

Read samples from the Denison University guide below:

Academics

“Overall, the teachers are well-educated, well-organized, and interested in the topics they are teaching. Several of them have taken time outside of class to discuss things that I am interested in that relate to class, and they have used their own time to...”

Diversity

“The campus is not really diverse at all. There are a handful of minorities, but mostly there are white kids on campus. It can be frustrating, because I thought college was supposed to be about expanding your horizons. I mean, you can learn about other...”

Guys & Girls

“Girls are good-looking. There are a lot of sevens but not a lot of tens. I’d say there’s a fair range of guys, some good-looking, some just creepy, but hey, nowhere is perfect.”

Athletics

“You aren’t going to get a crowd of tailgaters and diehard fans for football Saturday. In fact, you would be lucky if you get much more than the parents and alumni there, along with a couple of members of the student body with friends on the team. The team...”

Academics

Academics at Denison are challenging, which is generally the basis of Denison’s appeal. The students are largely in agreement that the professors at Denison are excellent. Obviously, every department has one or two professors that students shy away from, but generally, all professors are understanding and try to help students in any way possible. Most are pioneers in their field, whether they are world experts in vaudeville or researching possible cures for cancer. Honors classes are open to anyone, and the...

Diversity

Diversity is not one of Denison’s strong points. There are not a large amount of minorities on campus. Black students tend to hang out with black students, Indians with Indians, and white students with white students. If students use the approach of surrounding themselves with others of a particular race, it may feel like there are more minorities present than there actually are. If you want to meet people, you can find them, but you generally need to join a group like DISA to do so. It’s not impossible to...

Guys & Girls

Students are pretty mixed in their opinion about guys and girls. Some find them fairly attractive, and others find them to be average. It’s a common opinion that girls are more attractive than guys, but hot guys are not extinct—just hidden.

Denison is a preppy school, and this is reflected in the way students present themselves. Especially in the warmer periods of the year, students are polished and well-dressed. During the winter, a lot of students focus more on dressing for the weather than dressing to...

Athletics

The students say it best. Athletics are fun, but they are not a big deal on Denison’s campus. Denison is a Division III school, and admittance into sporting events is free to Denison’s students. It’s true that Denison has excellent rugby and swimming teams, but most students have never watched the swim team compete. A few more students go to the rugby games, but while varsity sports are important to the athletes playing them (Denison has won the All Sports trophy for several years), they are not a driving...
