The Fiske Guide

In 2009 Juniata College will make their first appearance in the prestigious Fiske Guide to Colleges. Fiske describes Juniata as a college that offers students a tantalizing mix of academic flexibility, small classes, and surprisingly solid programs in the natural sciences. Students create their own majors, conduct research alongside faculty, and pack their bags for study abroad opportunities around the world.

Fiske concludes that while Juniata is a small college in a small town, most students seem excited to be part of such an inviting academic institution. One senior sums it up - Those seeking "big football games, raging frat parties, and a vibrant urban setting" should look elsewhere. However, "if you are more interested in an intensive and personal academic environment with an extremely tight-knit and supportive community, then Juniata is the place for you."
