"As an artist looking for creative opportunities, Hip Hop Time Capsule stood out amongst most of the opportunities I was looking through. I was really looking for somewhere I could put my artistic abilities to use and/or learn more creative skills. And it definitely was a great choice."

“Within the education department, I have been able to work closely with all four of the professors. It has been really wonderful. The faculty-to-student ratio was part of the reason I ended up coming here, to have that personal relationship with your professors. I get to go have a conversation with this person who is personally invested in my success.”
Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Initiative
“You really get to know your professors. It's really easy to just ask them questions, to just halt class, to halt lecture and be like, ‘okay, I don't understand this. Can you go back over it?’ You get a much deeper understanding of stuff here. I think the professors know well how to pace coursework, so you get a lot more information, but it’s not too overwhelming.”
“Washington College professors are very nice and helpful. Ask them questions and keep in contact with them. They are super useful resources for students.”

"Professor Prud'homme has been one of the greatest professors here, him and Professor Weigel. Professor Weigel is such a great philosophy professor. I really have learned so much from him. He and Professor Prud'homme both do a lot of courses on Christianity. I grew up Protestant, and so I ended up taking a bunch of religion classes with Professor Weigel because I wanted to learn more."
