| There
is no accountability to students. Most 100 level classes are
taught by grad students who put no work or thought
into the class. The administration ignores student needs. When the
University had a budget deficit, they raised tuition by 10%.
When that didn't help, they cut the Mens soccer and
Womens volleyball teams. The meal plans are outrageously expensive. It's
cheaper to eat off campus than on, not to mention
the fact that the food is hardly average. My department
made me buy a two thousand dollar Apple computer which
I never had to use. A dean actually told me
that the program was only adopted because a previous dean
wanted to be “one of the first colleges in the
country to have this kind of program”. I have had
a professor outright lie about my final grade, and had
to go through a long battle to have it changed
(from a C- to a B+). The advising system is
also terrible. My 'advising center' was staffed by grad students
and one full time employee, and depending who you talked
to, you got different answers to the same question. The
university also uses a web client for class registration, financial
aid information, and communication that is impossible to navigate. Even
the staff hates it. No one at this university seems
to realize that they are there to assist students. Unfortunately,
it is one of three colleges in the state that
offer a degree in secondary education. If you're looking to
get a degree in this major, go to Farmington or
St. Joseph's.
