The campus is very flat (not surprising, given that it’s in western Illinois) but has a very open, spacious feeling which I liked. The buildings were of different styles and eras but overall I thought they were very attractive. My son and I visited in August before classes were in session so we didn’t get the student vibe, but I echo lindalana that the people we met (faculty, staff, student guides) were very, very friendly.

I thought the dorms were just so-so, but at this point in life I don’t know how anyone can live in those things. :)

Unfortunately, while my son was accepted he didn’t get any merit aid award, so he’ll be going elsewhere. But we both thought it was a very attractive school academically and physically. Good luck with your decision.
