The location is perfect for me, it has a quiet, safe, and clean campus. There is enough space for parking, which was one thing I was worried about. From my experience, my professors have all been excellent and exceeded all my expectations. I cannot wait for next semester.

Online teachers are bottom of the barrel. Online classes have their own unique challenges and tossing the worst teachers in this category is a disservice to the school and disrespectful to the students who have taken a chance on FGC to make way for a better life. Good online presence can be far reaching and beneficial, get it together.

The ASDN Program is spiraling down quickly. I have even heard that it is as though they are running a 'clown' college.
