What are the advantages of attending a small liberal arts college like Maryville?
As a small college, MC provides personal attention for its students. Faculty and staff know the students as individuals and can support and challenge each student based on his or her own needs and strengths. In addition, students can easily engage in many activities, clubs, or organizations, enriching their experience in college, making them well-rounded individuals, and teaching them valuable organizational and leadership skills. As a liberal arts college, MC provides the key elements for a successful career and a meaningful life. Employers agree that they look for individuals that can work in teams, analyze complex problems, write and speak clearly, and develop solutions to real world problems. These are the very skills emphasized by the liberal arts—and here at MC, epitomized by the Senior Study.
