Great atmosphere, very peaceful town
Bad reviews

You should know that this college has a racist, homophobic environment. Most of the Agricultural students think nothing of yelling out slurs or physically assaulting you if you are from a different culture or belong to the LGTBQ community. It is not safe for these students and the faculty does nothing make you feel safe. Very disappointing.
