The college will tell you that you can get a job as a social worker with a socilogy degree, but that is not true. Every job I applied for they wanted you to have a BSW degree. CofO does not offer that degree. They only offer a BS in Sociology. So beware if you want to be a social worker Cofo is not the school for you! I have had to go back to college and take another 45 hours to obtain a BSW. Most MSW programs require you to have a BSW before they will even look at you app.

The dorms are small and ran down! I don't feel like all students are treated that same! Don't let the rules scare you there are ways around them!

It's all politics. That's all this road show college is: politics. They put on a great show for perspective students and tourists rolling in on their 45-foot diesel coaches, receiving donations from brainwashed, religious elderly people who are duped by the show. Once you get on the inside, it's quite different from the road show you saw when you applied. Somehow it's considered reputable, but in reality, it's a joke. The administration is very corrupt, one of the former administrators bought his doctorate from a diploma mill and still got a full salary after he was found out. Some students are treated better than others based on connections. You have a curfew you have to follow, as if you're in the seventh grade. Girls aren't allowed in men's dorms, and vice versca, except for twice a year during "open houses", and even then RAs hover around and watch all the students like hawks. You're forced to attend "convocations", which are usually just religious, conservative gasbags loving the sound of their own voice. The air conditioning in the dorms is terrible (while the administrators live in luxurious, climate-controlled homes on campus). The school can afford better air conditioning with its 300 million dollar endowment, but I guess caring for the students would be too "Christ-like".
