I agree with Ms. Williams...This is a hidden jewel. My daughter turned down a full ride academic scholarship to a major big name university to attend Berry. At first I was mortified, but after we did our due diligence, I (and our family) are very pleased. My undergrad was at a large state school and I was just a number in the majority of my classes....(many taught frequently by TA's). This is a school dedicated to undergrad education.The student to prof ratio is about 15:1. Amazing. The campus is beautiful as well. I joke with my daughter that when I looked out my freshman dorm, all I could see was another Cabrini Green type high rise dorm with a couple of guys vomiting out their windows!.... The view from her dorm is picturesque with ducks, deer, meadows, flowers, and trees. Absolutely lovely. She will get her professional/advanced degree(s) from big name schools, but for now, she is in a near perfect place.I will try to steer her younger siblings towards Berry as well.

I truly think this place is a very well kept secert, what a magnificent surrounding to immerse yourself in to study!! The word needs to get out about this place it has it all, the work experience, the mentoring, someone who really cares about your education.I would be so pleased if any of my children decided to attend.
