“The student body feels southern and laid‑back, school culture centers on Teal Nation pride and weekend events, sports bring a lively March‑Madness‑style buzz especially around baseball and football, professors are approachable and supportive, and off‑campus life mixes beach trips, Myrtle Beach outings, local parks, and part‑time work or internships that keep the calendar full but never feel stuffy.”
