The national average for this metric is 15 to 1, but at CBC it is much better at 11 to 1. That's good news for students who want to interact more on a personal level with their teachers.
Another measure that is often used to estimate how much access students will have to their professors is how many faculty members are full-time. The idea here is that part-time faculty tend to spend less time on campus, so they may not be as available to students as full-timers.
The full-time faculty percentage at Central Baptist College is 26%. This is lower than the national average of 47%.
