Entering senior year, I am very happy there,Quite Bright
Entering senior year, I am very happy there, and will possible continue with grad school here (Business school). My biggest complaint is the locals in town do not embrace the students, even though we are the economic driver for the town (and much of Calhoun County). And the housing shortage on and off campus is insane. But I love my school choice and feel it's a lot of bang for the buck. You are not just a number here.

Overally, a really great little school (8,000 to 9,000 students). The response to the 2018 tornado was amazing, but they are still rebuilding. That stuff takes time. The dorms (with the exception of Stadium/Meehan) are terrible. Off-campus housing is affordable. The town hates the students and school and don't foster good relationships, even though the town is nothing without the school/students. Typical. Any good eateries get run out from the nonsupport. It's sad. SO we all go to Atlanta on weekends or Birmingham to get away when needed. Not much to do on weekends unless it's on campus so it's a sadly a suitcase school for many. Faculty is good, with maybe 25% of them part-time and not worth damn. Some majors are a joke, but Business, Music Ed, Nursing and Education are top notch.

Dorms are honestly horrible. I hate it here for that reason.
