The best thing about the history program at Truman is the extremely close relationships that the professors in the History Department have with their students. I have had several professors for multiple classes, and while they are always there to challenge and advise us academically, they also love to be a part of their students’ lives in other ways. I have had professors make the class food for finals, tell us about what has been going on in their lives, and I’ve even been to a professor’s house for dinner.
