 | Bright | Math department is terrible. The teachers are nice, but aren't good at teaching (math department only). When I transferred here it took the whole summer and a quarter for the school to review my credits so the first term I could only take easy/irrelevant classes. Cheney, the city that it's in, is horrible and tiny, there is nothing to do. I live in Spokane so I can at least be in a populated area and not lose my mind, but then I travel an hour to and from school everyday, and don't know many other students on campus. It's a catch-22. The school should stop putting money into selling apparel and landscaping, and start putting it into the classrooms. Oh, and when I go to the math tutoring center for extra help, 'cause I can't understand my teacher, they sometimes help and sometimes don't. They are mostly for only the lower level math courses. I'm transferring to another school again because I'm not a fan of this one. Sorry to rip them apart, but this is my honest opinion. Thank you | Campus Maintenance: A, Education Quality: F |  | | |

|  | Bright | As an adult in the age range of 35 to 105 my expectations are probably different. The lack of temptation in the city encourages study, but I found hard to work in groups in each class. Based on my experience with younger students here, I definitely prefer to work on my own; I try to do my best, not just pass a class.Like in most schools, memorization is the key to good grades; not enough emphasis in practical application of the course work. Most of my professors are helpful and willing to spend time with you if you are willing to work hard. Housing for families have a lot of room for improvement. Family housing on campus has not internet connection, but has poor basic cable. It puzzles me why the university provides a service that dumb people down, and not a service necessary for classes and research. Online classes should be less expensive than classroom classes, everywhere! Here online classes are around $300.00 more expensive per credit hour than classroom classes. It is a bizarre world. The school wants to encourage people to take online classes because the cost of delivery is much lower, to do so they charge more. It appears the trend is to provide less and less options for classroom classes with the expectation that students will opt for online classes; common sense tells me that the rate of transfers will increase. The choices of food in campus are the same as in any small mall's food court. On the other hand, if you like to cook, the local stores are well supplied and the prices reasonable. There also are a few restaurants in town. | Perceived Campus Safety: A, Collaboration/Competitive: C |  | | |

|  | Bright | I am an electrical engineering student. I can honestly say the reason for attending this school is due to being rejected at the UW. In terms of the quality of education, it seems like the grass is greener on the UW side. I'm taking out a student loan, which feels overpriced for EWU's lack of quality. The professors mean well, but they dumb it down for the students who should not have been accepted into the department. Some of them haven't even finished the physics series, diff eq, or linear algebra. In turn, they become moochers and take advantage of others who are actually working hard to succeed (ironic that college is supposed to make you independent). I was like the big fish in a little bowl, which isn't benificial to me. I'm looking to apply elsewhere. The only reason to stay at EWU is that through a bunch of drama and not working with those moochers anymore, I have found myself a good study team. Although all of us aren't happy with the quality of education, we work as hard as those UW kids. | Friendliness: A+, Education Quality: C |  | | |
