If you ask students to name the best thing about Saint Michael's, they'll almost certainly repond with "the faculty!"
If you ask the faculty, they'll say something along the lines of, "working with the students."
Such mutual respect creates the ideal conditions for learning.
- Saint Michael's students are in very good hands. Here are just a few reasons why our faculty stand out from the crowd:
While research and publishing are a part of their worlds, teaching is their absolute top priority
Four of the last seven years, a Saint Michael's professor has been named Vermont Professor of the Year
They regularly engage with students outside of class
They get undergraduate students involved in their research--not something you'll find at your average university
94% hold a Ph.D. or other terminal degree
They really care about their students as people--our excellent academic advising program ensures frequent connections
Their degrees are from some of the best instituions in the nation and the world (think Harvard, Stanford, Princeton and so on)
Due to their overall quality and the College's academic reputation, Saint Michael's was recently invited to create a charter for a prestigious Phi Beta Kappa chapter on campus
