The facilities are nice and the faculty are extremely helpful, just don't expect to be greatly challenged by the curriculum. You can learn a lot there, you just have to go beyond what is expected in most classes. IUS has a very relaxed atmosphere which helps if you are also working full-time, as many students are.

The faculty are usually available, and willing to discuss a project with you individually if necessary. For the most part, I can only say good things about the educational program at IUS. My only criticism is that the social life on campus is fairly non-existent. Unless you join a Greek organization, you're probably not going to have much of a 'college experience'. The college is small and people are friendly, but we're commuter students - most of us have jobs and lives outside of school. If you're looking for the whole college experience thing, you would be better off going to Bloomington. However, if you're trying to fit an education into a busy lifestyle, then IUS is a good choice. Over the past year or so, alot of discussion has centered around student housing. Dorms would certainly change the culture of the school, and probably decrease the age of the average student (I think the median age here is 30). My two cents on IUS is that it is a fairly good school, though is certainly not for everybody. If you are a non-traditional student (you're older, you work, you have a family), then IUS is a wonderful way to get a state school degree without sacrificing your life. However, if you're looking for a traditional college experience, then you might want to try another school. Faculty Accessibility: A, Social Life: C- Have a Question?

I do not think he cares about teaching. He is very mean spirited. He puts down students and lies about himself. He is the reason they should get rid of tenure.
