申请点评
- Campus Quality: Culinary Arts program means there is a relatively nice cafeteria and variety of foods. Grounds and dorms are nicer than they used to be and the older buildings are being renovated. Computer labs could be a bit nicer. The theater is decent, and the performing arts programs are just okay, although stay away from Dave Sharp. He and his family are pretty well known for being arrogant blankety blanks, completely full of themselves with no respect for anyone else, especially students.
- Student Body: Diversity isn't very good. It's a rural midwest area, and that's where almost all of the students come from. There are a few asian transfer students and the athletic department is known for traveling to Chicago, etc. to recruit directly from the streets which is great, but that's about as much color as you'll see in this area. The student body is a bit more diverse than the surrounding community, but not by much. It seems to lack the large hispanic population that the surrounding area has though.
- Religious, political and social topics are about as you'd expect from a white rural population, although being a college it's a little better than the town overall. There is an LGBT/GSA club recently renamed the Allies for Equality who will have your back for just about any equality-based cause, and a scant few courses you can take on world religions and cultures.
- Campus Resources: There is only one lab, it is in the library. The availability of printing is great, you can print as much as you need with no charge. The networks reliability and speed are not the best. Their wireless access on campus is not the best either.
- Campus Resources: I really liked the gym in the Hellyer Center and the new one in the Net Center. There aren't many campus activities. The Pit is a good place to meet up with friends or just to sit and waste time.
- Campus Resources: I can use wireless on my phone and laptop... but as far as the web site that msot teachers post all the hmwk etc on it's about a 50/50 shot if itll be working. Same goes for registration time. Webpage isnt reliable in my opnion.*(4)
