Why Central?
Why should you choose Central College? Ask Central students and they’ll likely tell you about the feeling they got as soon as they arrived on campus — that they’d found a new family, a new home and a new best fur-iend (our mascot, Big Red). Find your place, make your home and build a life at Central!
