Pros

Climate is good; faculte colleagues hard working and dedicated

Cons

Governance is autocratic and narrow in outlook; athletics dominates most aspects of university life. Students are bright but not challenged. Administration more focused on generating numbers--in students, grants, publications- than assessing or producing quality.
