Called To College
IntroductionThe biggest thing is this, Love the Lord Your God with all your Heart, Mind, Soul, Strength. If not then don't bother, this place is for those who wish to impact their world for the better by focusing on God and glorifying his kingdom. I choose Geneva b/c: it's small, rural, and truly the most bible focused college I've seen. the campus is only 50 acres (short walk to class!), but it is sooooo(...) beautiful! Next to the mountains, and the sunrises! Also it's safe, yet is only like 36 miles away from Pittsburgh! Those who are lookin' just to party and meet hotties need not apply,though there are partys (and there ARE Hotties!), they're not focused around alcohol, and the girls aren't tramps.
Campus Life and Social LifeIf you go to Geneva, you'll instantly feel the closeness of the college. Everyone exemplfies the "love your neighbor as yourself" motto. Parties are not like others, (no "dirty" dancing), sports are fun, and they have a wide vareity of clubs and options to affect your world. Weekends are meant to be focused on God, there is no laundry on sundays, and the coolest thing is that a bunch of the students every sunday go and visit local churches, it's loads of fun seeing God in the community!
AcademicsDepartments vary, but all have great profs, the biblical (thats where i am) and engineering departments are the best! Workload is managable. jsut remember deadlines, you'll get by easy! the buildings are made of sandstone from local quarrys and looks awesome when the sun lights the buildings up! The Beaver River right next to the campus is pretty cold all year, but that doesn't stop nighttime dips!
Student BodyThe people are great, can't find a better staff, and the students alll respect each other, all the antics that you hated in High School (the immature crap) melts away and everyone respects everyone. weekends are relaxed, and are meant to be spent in meditation, focusing on God. Like it should be!
In Closing...If you need a place to grow, look no further, you have to visit, don't take my word for it, you'll know what i mean by the time you leave. If you like music, come; if you like science, come; if you like math, come;, if you LOVE LIFE, come! You'll never regret ever coming here, and if you do, it is not the college... it's you that doesn't want to live the righteous walk.
