Pros

This place is getting better....finally, thanks to the great new president.

Cons

Still a lot of work to do with the rank and file faculty and staff. There's a deeply embedded culture of mediocrity.

Pros

The teachers really know their field, the instructors challenge you and won't just give you a grade, and they make you walk out of every class knowing your field.

Cons

The campus is really boring unless you are active in some type of activity. Your really have to make your own college experience their an want to be involved to have a good time. Also, administration is horrible. They loose and mess up records especially around graduation. Know your program advisors are horrible also.
