学生评价
- I am a biology major - premed - challenging curriculum. My professors are very helpful and encouraging. They are willing to assist those who make a sincere effort.
- Challenging curricula - professors willing and available to help. SI available for most classes.
- Our academics have very high standards. Sometimes too high. Our Biology and Music departments are probably the best on campus, followed closely by the other sciences and the Psychology department.
- Physical Education Major – I love most of the teachers in the PE department (even though there is turnover). The education head, is difficult to work with though, and seems PE majors struggle because of the one professor. I'm having issues with having to pass the SC Praxis rules compared to the NC Praxis rules and it's costing me a fortune.
- Erskine's academic challenges are very tough. I've taken summer courses elsewhere and had friends go from Erskine back to "state" schools to tell me that those schools are sooooo much easier than Erskine. Hopefully, that means someday, when applications for jobs are looked at, that my degree from Erskine will be worth a lot more.
- Small Classes Having Pros and Cons – The classes are small, for sure. This is pretty great as you can learn well with the extra attention each student gets, but it also allows the professors to be more attentive to your weaknesses. This helps them to stretch and grow students far outside their comfort zones.
- Biology-Physical Therapy – Im just a freshman and havent started my college classes yet, but just by talking to the students they really love it because they get one on one time with the professors which really helps them learn better.
- Professors are kind but demanding!! The academics are well respected. I came to be in the dual-degree program with Erskine and Clemson. I have been confused about some things but the director at Erskine College has been very helpful and he spends a lot of time helping me figure out my class schedule even though he is not my advisor.* (5)
