I have never been to a school that cares about their students the way Prairie State does! That includes the faculty and staff. Whatever problem or problems you may have, there is somebody to assist you with whatever you are going through. I really wish I didnt have to leave!

Class is often full of students filling seats and not interested in learning. Many Professors cannot control the class environment and at times appear intimidated to speak up about inappropriate class behavior and when certain students are addressed they become irate acting more like kindergarten children instead of college students.

Wouldn't even take my gen eds here. And I'm not saying that just because the environment is poor. Everything about this institution is bad.

While it is the only game in the area that I can afford, trying to get ahold of an adviser by phone is nearly impossible. The internet never seems to be working. There are zillions of just out of high school students who treat it like high school, yelling and screaming, blasting music, etc. I suggest taking your class and leave, don't hang around.
