What is your school best known for?Troy University is best known for the small class size.  The small class size gives students a more one on one relationship with their teachers and peers.  this is a feeling one can only receive from a smaller university.What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?The lack of support from the community as a whole.  It helps to have the support of your community when attending a school.  The community support helps when it come to finding part time jobs and off campus housing.
