Faculty Quotes

Augusta State is a great value, both in terms of what it costs to send students here and of what students take away from the school when they graduate. Small classes like we offer our majors are ideal for undergraduates. They can get individual attention when they need it from professors who really care about their success. Huge research universities are great for graduate students who know the academic ropes, but for undergrads, a place like ASU is ideal. I know because I attended one.

-Dr. Debra vanTuyll, Communications and Professional Writing

You can spend $600 more per semester and send your child to a larger university. There your child will be taught by graduate assistants in 200 person classes. You can save that $600 and send your child to ASU where PhD's will teach your child in classes of 15 to 40 people. Hmm, save money and get a better education at ASU: the choice is obvious.

-Dr. James Benedict , Math and Computer Science

Parents should send their children to ASU for several reasons:  ASU is a nurturing environment where young people can stretch their wings and try new things in a school that does not overwhelm them.  Secondly, ASU provides a high quality faculty and level of instruction that rivals any public university in the region.
