i have learned many things going to Spartan. one is to visit the school before deciding to go. this school puts their efforts into PR and recruiting. once there, not only do they treat you with condesending air, they literally know you by your social security number. they promise advanced, "hands-on" training and "trouble-shooting" techniques, but for a year now, every class is structured so that you take a quiz approx. 4 quizzes, 4 tests. not much opportunity for other grades. for a "lab", they hand you a book, and you as students work together to figure out the assignment. one instructor i've taken has not even recieved an associate's degree, allowed to teach on account of having passed the FCC certification test. the school seems to run students through a pre-determined tunnel of education, merely to process you as fast as possible, and to move the next student on in. one main thing i'd like any prospective student to look into is the crime rates of this school. while the "on campus" crime rate is posted, they are not required to post the "student housing" crime rate for some reason. our school does not have university email service.
