What Students Are Saying
The professors here at Defiance, are not really strict but they are fair in their judgement. They want you to be responsible for your own work, and if you don't do it or cannot make it to class, they want you to notify them ahead of time so they can expect it to be late or not to see you in class. In the dorms however, they are strict. If you are extremely loud during quiet hours then you're first told to turn it down, then if you have to be told more times, they get the Hall Directors and if need be the Dean of Students.

As far as academics go DC is great. The classes are always small so the professors can give you one on one attention. The professors are also very easy to get along with and generally will work with you to keep your grades up.

The fact that Defiance College is small also make the academic very fun. There are many resources present for students to use. You actually have a real professor in all your classes.
