The college provides students with direct access to the internet from their dorm rooms, and maintains a computer lab. For more information about computer facilities, please contact the Office of Computer Services. Although the college maintains a computer lab, it is recommended that all students bring their own computer. Simon's Rock is very proud to have an extremely low ratio of students to faculty. Classes are primarily seminar style with about 12 students, but classes of six or seven students are not uncommon.
Teachers are very accessible to students, and are called by their first names.
A casual, yet respectful environment exists which allows true mentoring relationships to develop easily. As students advance at Simon's Rock more choices become available. With normally fewer than 350 students attending the school at one time, Simon's Rock is an extremely close-knit community. Individuality is encouraged, and strong friendships form quickly. There are no fraternities or sororities allowed on campus, but the social life at Simon's Rock is an integral part of the experience.
