Pros

I have nothing nice to say about this place. It is terrible in all respects.

Cons

Town smells like fecal matter... Probably because of the large open-pit sewage processing plant in downtown Augusta (to the South). Watch out for that northward wind.

Pros

I got out alive and hope you do too if you end up here.

Cons

Leadership seem to be employed because they are willing to do anything: push x under a bus? No problem! Lie to accreditation board? No problem! Support misogyny? No problem. Fail to get proper licences and sack the person who told you about the oversight? No problem. Burn whistleblowers? No problem. On and on. Any serious review would close the place.
