Returning undergrad. I'm ready to get my socks blown off! When I left the school was undergoing major construction, all for the better in my opinion. It was rather on the small side but seems larger now with plenty up to date renovations from what i saw upon registering. Staff and faculty still the same and from what i can remember they are all helpful for the most part but as expected there are a few rotten teachers who simply just don't give a rats ass for you or anyone else. This is just life! Overall it is a good 4 year community college and i would recommend it to anyone living in the Brooklyn.
Review CUNY Medgar Evers College
Excellent Public Administration program. The professors are all experienced professionals who have served in upper level management and administrative cabinet positions in government, therefore you learn from first hand experience. The professors want you to learn; they push you to learn; they bend and mold you sufficiently but never break you.
I recommend the Public Administration program highly!
I love the Campus, clean & energized staff members. There're many different options when it comes to food ,down from the local deli to everyone's favorite fast food restaurants such as Wendy's, McDonald's, Popeyes, Checkers etc.(There are healthy choices around as well).The staff here is very understanding and want all their students to aim for success outside and inside of the classroom. So far so good
