Business Outlook
Pros
Collegial community that truly values cultural diversity. Provides low-cost parking in a relatively new, brightly-lit garage, as well as large surface lots. Great technology. Close to Chicago and Lake Michigan. Encourages tenure-track and tenured faculty research, as well as undergraduate student research. Requires all undergraduates to complete two service learning courses.
Cons
Not many good places to eat nearby, and the surrounding community is a bit depressed. Due to statewide budget cuts for Indiana state colleges, they have had to deal with budget cuts. Pay is a bit low compared to other universities where I interviewed. Relies too heavily on adjunct faculty.
