I
enjoyed many parts of my time at PCC. I made
some great friends and met my wife will there. I
was very involved student — I was president of my
collegian(required fraternity minus the alcohol, parties, and house), a 'straight
A' student, floorleader(person in charge of one floor of the
dorm), played intramural sports, worked on campus for two years,
and graduated with honors. I, however, can not recommend my
alma mater, and would strongly discourage my children from attending.
The two main problems I had with PCC were the
lack of accreditation and the closedmindedness of the campus. PCC
markets itself as a Christian alternative to all of the
big Universities and Colleges across the nation, but it lack
the accreditation necessary to make its degree as valuable as
a degree from an online university. I did not realize
the import of accreditation until it was too late for
me to transfer. I went to law school, but could
not get into the school of my choice because of
PCC's lack of accreditation. If you are going in to
the ministry, this is not a problem, but if you
plan to seek employment at a public school district, go
to graduate school, or find a prestigious career, Pensacola is
not the place for you. No matter how friendly the
teachers, or how difficult the classes, in our country, accreditation
is a large part of what gives a degree its
worth, and a degree from PCC is not accredited. Second,
the campus if very closeminded. To some this may be
a strength, but I was stifled. If a student expressed
any point of view contrary to the accepted point of
view on any topic, that student could expect discplinary action
from the administration. College should be a place to experience
diversity of experiences, ideas, and people, but PCC does not
allow this. The college allows no independent student newspaper or
student led meetings or rallies. I found this lack of
free exchange of ideas and cultures discouraging and dissatisfactory.
