You know, there are always pros and consAccounting
You know, there are always pros and cons to almost everything, and PCC is no exception. The teachers are pretty good but out of touch with the real world. The buildings and grounds are nice I will admit.

The biggest problem is that Dr. Horton's philosophy of how to run things is worse than Fidel Castro's is. If you don't agree with the smallest thing, you are branded a heretic, and the suck-ups are all over you for it. After I graduated, I had to literally readjust to the real world. Once I left PCC, it was so refreshing to have people trust me, care abotu me, not ignore me when my beliefs were SLIGHTLY different than theirs. What we as students were subject to may very well fit the description of borderline brain washing. That is best way I can describe it.

Since I have graduated, I am denied access to all alumni services because I wrote a letter to the administration with a few legitimate suggestions. The adminsitration called my employer to try to ruin my chances there. They even told my pastor to be careful of me since I may be a horrible influence on his church. All this because I didn't agree that the King James Version was the only version of the Bible ok to use.Sadly I cannot recommend this school to any one. Instead I would warn you to be very careful. If you do go, you will either come out a clone, or be hurt very much in the process.

Question
I am about to graduate in May.BrightPerfomance Arts
I am about to graduate in May. I can say for a fact that PCC has changed for the worse in my four years here, and it is definitely different than when my brother was here in the mid 90s.

Yes, the campus looks good and my training is decent, thanks only to faculty in spite of the administration. By the way, many of my teachers are leaving this May also. The overwhelming bad thing is that from the Hortons on down, they care more about numbers and looks than what's important. I have felt like a number many times, not a person. Student Life Office assumes I must not be saved because my music standards are different than theirs. They are trying to make little robots, clones of themselves instead of truly training us to be better Christians in our field.

The students already know that they are pretending to be others to make all kinds of great comments - guess what, it doesn't surprise us because that's what we are used to from the Hortons. They dropped the ball a while back, and are now responsible for ruining more people than they help.If you are in high school thinking about coming, here's the deal. Follow God's will absolutely - the center of God's will is the best place to be. But do your homework big time about PCC.

Question
Dear Alumni,BrightCriminal
Dear Alumni,
There is a website named studentsreview.com that appears to be
objective in its review of colleges and universities. For the most
part, responses by former PCC students are from those who never
graduated and, consequently, the majority would not want to attend
here again.
It would help your alma mater, as a four-year graduate, if you would
visit this site and fill out their alumni survey. We believe a
graduate would present a more accurate and positive picture of their
experience at PCC. For a complete review, be sure to select "Goto
Advanced Alumni" after the initial alumni survey.
Thank you for helping us.
The PCC Alumni AssociationThis email to the alumni proves what a pathetic, worthless, unaccredited waste of time it is to go to this place....avoid at all cost. PCC is ONLY concerned with the schools image ( example being the email ) rather then education.
