I love the small classrooms. Teachers go out of their way to make sure you know they are there for you. Charming little place. I wish I would have started here than a University.

The internet here is awful. The bathroom plumbing needs improvement, smells of rotting decay and does not flush properly. I feel like the prices of classes I have to pay do not amount to the quality of this campus. The desks/chairs in classrooms are also too tight and very uncomfortable. This campus has an overall dull, gloomy 1970's feel to it.
