Delaware County Community College

I started at DelCo as a Psych student. My experiences with the professors with the Social Science Department were on the whole miserable. The vast majority of those professors are arogant, incompetent, and unhelpful.

I moved over to the Math/Science Department and discovered a completely different world. These professors were on the whole brilliant, knowledgable, helpful, and willing to give of themselves selflessly to help any student understand.

There is a very clear relationship between the quality of professors I encountered there throughout my degree, and the Dean under whom they worked.

The college seemed to be filled primarily with two types of students: the ones who couldn't make it in a university and did nothing while here; and the returning students who were getting readjusted to college, like myself, who worked hard and did well! Group projects with the "drop-outs" were very frustrating. Group projects with the non-traditional students were awe-inspiring!!
