I have visited Muskingum University on several occasions, both with friends who were students, and for events being held on campus like graduation ceremonies and music performances. The housing, grounds, and buildings are nice, and well maintained. Their is a lot of diversity among both students and staff, and this is a university with a strong focus on both artistic and intellectual pursuits. New Concord is a small college town with a strong reputation for safety and the Muskingum Campus seems to reflect this. I felt safe walking on campus even after dark. I have heard excellent things, from students and staff, about Muskingums sports teams and extracurricular activities.
