My time at FMU generally positive. I am not sure why there are so many negative reviews about the school, but I have been gone for a while and do not know if things have changed that much. I cam to FMU the first year that Dr. Carter took over and witnessed many changed to the school and its physical presence in Florence until I move away in 2007. I enjoyed my time in the History Dept. The Professors were engaging and worked with students. They expected students to make an effort in their studies and were not tolerant of slackers. I also was involved in the School of Education. It focused mainly on education theory and not enough on practical classroom issues. I have come to learn that this is fairly normal for most colleges and universities.
