As the parent of a freshman male student I am extremely disappointed in this college… My husband and son visited on an athletic scholarshiping visit and after reviewing his choices, our son chose Northland. We have had a semester of living hell, from dorm issues, hazing from the "wanna be hippies", a caoching staff that is only concerned about their own well being. The courses offered are very specifically environmental based… I do not feel that weeding the spinach crop or husking wheat is a necessary weekly project for these kids especially when thier major has nothing to do with agriculture. ?? They are very phony welcoming and once they have you in the system you become a file number and the parents are told to "butt-out" that they are not welcome to be involved!! amazing since they are acting on our wallets! hmm.. I would definitely check this college thoroughly before making a decision and if it seems like the right place… I would recheck and reconsider… I have been extremely disappointed in the staff and facilities.
