The College of Charleston is home to many unique experiences, whether it's intriguing classes, inspirational professors, or historical traditions.
"I’ve really enjoyed my time in the 1770s Records class," said Bertie Sackson, a senior at the College of Charleston. "It is just a cool way to put on events and shows with your friends and people you know. I haven’t heard of many organizations similar to it, even at other schools, and I believe it’s sort of by textbook definition a hidden gem."
The class empowers students to exercise creative thinking and collaboration while participating in social activities.
But without a professor, the class is nothing, something Brody Pride, a junior communication major, has learned. His COMM 315 professor, Dr. Westerfelhaus, is underrated.
"I don't think he gets the credit," Pride said, adding there are a lot of good professors but Dr. Westerfelhaus doesn't get mentioned enough. "I wish that he was more well-recognized."
But once you're finishing up your college career, Maddie Jinkins, a sophomore at the College of Charleston, reminds everyone of a long-lost tradition.
"Not only are we supposed to cross the Cistern when we graduate, but we’re also supposed to continue down all the way past the end of campus… you’re supposed to continue past campus and that's supposed to grant you good fortune, good luck, and basically a good career -- and nobody does it right now."
