    I love this school! Parking is a bit of a pain if you don't have a permit, but the campus isn't full like other schools. The teachers are more older, but they really know their stuff. They are very helpful! When I came here for a math class, I learned about certain books being on "reserve" in the library. Saved me some money instead of having to buy books.
    A lot of resources that support students and their educational journeys, smaller class sizes which help with professors checking more frequently. I also appreciate the on-campus resources such as the library, cafeteria, and bookstore. I also appreciate Student Life because they offer field trips and other activities for students to create relationships with one another.
