Quick facts about Gordon
The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.
So some quick facts about Gordon Gordon has a population of about sixteen hundred students, so it's pretty small. I was actually worried about going to a small school. Originally, I really thought I wanted to go to a big school. Um, but when I got here, I was surprised at how big it felt. I came from a pretty small high school, and I didn't really want to go to to another school. Um, I really feel like there are tons of people that I still don't know which is nice for me because I feel like there's opportunities to get to know people I don't like feeling like they know everybody already. Um, but also, there's enough familiar faces that, like walking around campus, you'll definitely see people you know, um and honestly, like, it just doesn't feel like super small to me like, and I love the campus. There's enough buildings I love there's a whole like trail system behind in the Gordon Woods, like behind the pond. It's a really beautiful Um, and I really just I just love Gordon. Um I really like classes that challenge you, and I feel like the academics here are very strong. The professor's really do try to challenge you. The classes aren't super easy or anything, but you can do well. I mean, if you try hard, Um, but I really I really love, um the stress everybody puts on their academics. So in terms of majors, um, I think there are a lot of education majors, a lot of music majors. I think there are a lot of psychology majors, but maybe that's just because I'm a psychology major. Um, but yeah, you definitely meet tons of people from all different majors. Uh, that's actually another super cool thing about Gordon is we actually have a program where you can actually build your own major. So if we don't have when you want, you can build it. You go before a panel, and you proposed this idea for a major, and you can get it approved. Basically you make your own major, and you can also do it for a minor. If it's something you don't offer, I know. We offer the neuroscience a za minor, but we don't offer it is a major. So in the past, people have made the minor into a major through the pipe program. Is that a crazy different from what we offer you? And you can take classes at nearby schools, which I think is super cool, so you can incorporate that into how you're going to fulfill the requirements for this major that you want to build. So if major offerings are reason you might not be considering Gordon, huh? You should reconsider.
