There are many clubs that you can join, varying in their activities. Sport clubs range from crew to ultimate Frisbee. Voluntary activities are encouraged, with programs ranging from helping local children to environmental work. There is also a weekly university newspaper and a literary magazine. The Bistro is a student-run caf that is a popular hangout to drink coffee and meet with friends.
Classes are small in size, with an emphasis on participation.
The workload is spread out over the semester, with assessment based on essays, exams and presentations. There are a couple of computer labs, both of which are open twenty-four hours. You are expected to buy the books on your course, which can cost quite a lot of money, but you can sell them back when you return to Keele. The library is smaller than Keele s, but this is due to the small size of the university. The university is situated in the city of Salem, the state capital.
