Athletic Facilities Hendrix Athletic Facilities Ranked 13th in Nation by Princeton Review Hendrix College has always been considered one of the country’s best institutions for undergraduate education, however, according to the Princeton Review the Warriors’ three-year-old athletic facilities ranks among the best in the nation The Princeton Review recently praised Hendrix College for its new Wellness and Athletic Center, Bob Courtway Pool and four outdoor playing fields by ranking it 13th in the country among all 2,500 four-year colleges That includes all NCAA Division I, II and III schools Hendrix joined Wabash College (Crawfordsville, Ind.) and Middlebury College (Middlebury, Vt.) as the only other NCAA Division III schools to make the Top 20 list Hendrix was also the only Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC) school on the list (Front view of the Wellness and Athletic Center) The Warriors finished construction of their new athletic facilities in August of 2007 The new buildings and playing fields replaced the 46-year-old Grove Gymnasium Hendrix has also recently finished construction of the new Student Life and Technology Center, which has been erected on the west side of Harkrider where Grove Gymnasium formerly sat “Our new athletic facilities have helped us, along with the great work of our coaching staff, to increase the number of student-athletes participating in our 19 sports from about 180 a few years ago to over 350 this year,” said Athletics Director Danny Powell The SCAC has given Hendrix the opportunity to show off its new state-of-the-art facilities by appointing the school as host of the 2008 and 2009 SCAC Men’s and Women’s Basketball Championships, 2009 SCAC Field Hockey Championships, 2010 SCAC Softball Championships and 2010 SCAC Outdoor Track & Field Championships The SCAC has chosen Hendrix as a host school for its conference championships because of the central location in the conference, ability to run on-campus tournaments and the abundant hotels and restaurants Conway has to offer One of the greatest aspects of Hendrix Athletics is the affordable admission to its 19 sporting event’s home games throughout the year, including SCAC Championships Fans can come out and enjoy all the fun and excitement of college athletics for the best price of all, FREE In its profile on Hendrix (pages 280-281), The Princeton Review praises the college for its involved student body and accepting atmosphere Hendrix students are quoted extensively throughout the review, discussing everything from the “phenomenal [financial] aid that would be ridiculous to turn down” to the “awesome theme parties” A political science major noted that “one of Hendrix’s selling points is the personal relationships that students build with their professors,” while another student credited professors for being “courageously friendly.” The Princeton Review’s 62 ranking lists in The Best 371 Colleges are entirely based on its survey of 122,000 students (about 325 per campus on average) attending the colleges in the book The 80-question survey asks students to rate their schools on several topics and report on their campus experiences Topics range from student assessments of their professors, administrators, financial aid, and campus food Other ranking lists are based on student reports about their student body’s political leanings, race/class relations, gay community acceptance, and other aspects of campus life A college’s appearance on a ranking list is entirely the result of a high consensus among its surveyed students about a topic compared with that of students at other schools answering the same survey question(s) on the ranking list topic (Aerial view of the top-ranked Warrior facilities)

leadership in engaged liberal arts and sciences education Led by our flagship Odyssey Program and supported by The Hendrix Campaign, we have been charting progress, writing history, and making a difference in the lives of our students and the world Hendrix is a College that engages students in the active pursuit of knowledge Our students work closely with their faculty mentors, shaping their learning experiences to reflect their personal interests and challenging themselves to stretch beyond what they thought possible The Hendrix Motto “Unto the whole person” The Hendrix seal appeared for the first time on the cover of the 1898 catalog The seal included the College’s motto, selected by a committee headed by the Rev George W Hill and taken from a passage in Ephesians: “Till we all come in the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ ” (Ephesians 4:13, King James Version) Currently translated as “unto the whole person,” the motto, in Ancient Greek, reflects Hendrix’s dedication to both Christian principles and the traditional liberal arts ideal This commitment to engaged learning is part of the history and fabric of Hendrix College It is now the cornerstone of a curricular initiative called Your Hendrix Odyssey: Engaging in Active Learning Through the Odyssey program we guarantee that every Hendrix student will have at least three specific active learning experiences, drawn from six categories In addition to the personal benefit students receive by linking critical thought with action, Hendrix will also provide an experiential learning transcript to each graduate We believe this new credential will be a valuable addition to our graduates’ portfolios, whether their next move in life is to continue their education in graduate school or to enter the workforce National Recognition Hendrix has a long and proud tradition of national recognition As early as 1900 Hendrix was recognized by the U.S Office of Education as having higher standards for admission and graduation than any other institution of higher learning in Arkansas That recognition continues today as numerous journals and college guides recognize the impact of Your Hendrix Odyssey: Engaging in Active Learning on American higher education Fiske Guide to Colleges Fiske Guide to

“best classroom experience” category, 16th in the “best college theater” category, and 20th in the “lots of race/class interaction.” Hendrix is also listed in The Princeton Review’s 2008 edition of American’s Best Value Colleges noting the fact that Hendrix costs about 10 percent less than several comparable schools around the country In the 2010 edition, Best 371 Colleges, Hendrix is ranked fifth “Easiest Campus to Get Around” and 13th “Best Athletic Facilities.” Colleges That Change Lives Colleges That Change Lives once again selects Hendrix for inclusion in its latest guidebook edition, “40 Schools that will Change the Way You Think About Colleges.” Former New York Times education editor Loren Pope wrote the guidebook to help students, parents and counselors find a good college match The book profiles colleges that make a real difference in the lives of students The choices in the book were based on Pope’s years of research as a journalist, as well as his direct interaction with students and graduates of the CTCL schools The 40 colleges he evaluates are known for their abilities to serve students with a wide range of abilities yet produce higher proportions of scientists and scholars 2010 Hendrix College Volleyball Discover Hendrix In summing up his reason for selecting Hendrix, which has a nine-page profile in the book, Pope writes: “I was unexpectedly blown away by Hendrix It is an exemplary college and teenagers of a wide range of abilities and interests would find this a very happy fit socially…There should be at least one college as good as Hendrix in every state.” The New York-based education services company features Hendrix in its 2006 edition of its book, America’s Best Value Colleges The guide profiles 81 colleges with outstanding academics, generous financial aid packages and relatively low costs It includes public and private colleges and universities in 35 states Hendrix is the only college in Arkansas featured on the list
