Engaging content and personalized attention

 "I didn't like history before I took classes here at Carroll.  The history professors here are great, they keep you engaged.  An my adviser, Dr. Swartout doesn't just advise you academically - he wants to know what is going on in your life.  He's always there for you on a personal level." -JD Soloman, '01, History & Secondary Education with a minor in Physical Education
