CONWAY, Ark. (August 6, 2013) – Hendrix is once again among
the top colleges profiled in The Princeton Review’s The Best 378 Colleges.
Only 15 percent of America's 2,500 four-year colleges are
profiled in the latest edition of the guide, published this week, and the
primary selection criterion is based on the outstanding academics of each
school.
“Our inclusion in The
Best 378 Colleges is affirmation of Hendrix's distinctive academic program
and student experience as demonstrated through its approach to engaged learning
in a strong liberal arts and sciences curriculum,” said Executive Vice President for
Strategic Initiatives and Vice President for Enrollment Karen R. Foust.
“Hendrix is grateful for the recognition and for the faculty and staff who
dedicate their energy and care in providing an outstanding educational
experience for our students."

category, and quality of student life on campus.
