They were very much a close-knit group of people. I really enjoyed meeting each of the professors I interviewed with (there were two). Everyone really wanted to help me out and I dont think this was just for show. They truly care about each other and help each other get through their studies and other personal issues. The professors also really care about the students and try to get to know them. All of them try their best to learn the names of all the students and they often go out for drinks, dinner, etc. (on the prof's tab!) It's easy to get involved and you wont just become another student!
Plus, I currently go to school at Vanderbilt (in Nashville) so I know alot of people here and it's convenient to me.
But am I wrong??? How has your experience been at Meharry?
