Business and education claim nearly half of all undergraduates at Hastings College, a small Presbyterian school in southern Nebraska. Hastings doesn't just produce specialists, though; a thorough slate of liberal arts requirements and "a wide variety of classes" ensures that all are exposed to what one student terms "the most comprehensive program for personal and professional development available in the United States." Hastings' size and "small town atmosphere" usually works to students' benefit, and "you can become whatever you want and [the school] will help you every step of the way." "It is extremely unusual for teachers to not know the names of the students in their classes within the first two weeks," says a student. "Hastings is such a great place; there are so many opportunities to take advantage of," says one student. The school "really caters to the students, doing anything to make them feel comfortable here." Indeed, professors here "make themselves readily available nearly 24 hours per day," and they truly "strive to help you succeed and work to your full potential." Hastings boasts "top-of-the-line labs and classrooms," however, as is the case at many small schools, "There are only so many chances to take certain classes." As a result, scheduling ahead is highly recommended. The administration "seems to be very open to opinions and suggestions from the students."
