    Great 2 year community college, great tuition prices if your a beaver resident. They have a lot of majors to pick from, and a lot connections with four year colleges when your ready to transfer to get a bachelor degree. The professors are very friendly and are very into what they are teaching. The main campus is in a nice location, and a lot of restaurants and mall just down the road.
    The classes are fine, some professors are better than others. There’s a wide range in students of all ages from dual enrollment high schoolers to retired older people. For the price of the classes compared to other institutions, it really is a great deal. This is a good place to start your education to transfer to a 4 year university in the future. Many degree programs have a smooth transition into those other institutions due to established partnerships between the schools. Transfer students go in to the other universities as juniors. Overall, I think this is a wise choice to save money and still get an education.
