I'm from Joplin, MO which is about an hour from Springfield. Joplin is a town of about 100,000 thousand people, and it has a state university which is where I started out my academic career. After 2 years, I was bored with the school there so I decided to move up to Springfield to attend college. I started out going to Ozarks Technical Community College, but I decided to transfer yet again because the classes were unchallenging and I did not feel like I was going to a "real" college. I had a good friend who attended Drury and highly recommended it. This semester was my first at Drury, and I can honestly say that I am extremely happy with my choice. I attend the night school program because I work full-time during the day, and it is so flexible. There are so many night classes offered that it would be easy to get your degree this way. The night classes are small, so I feel like I get a better grasp of the material being discussed. I would recommend this university to anyone!
