Upon arrival in 2019, the experience was one of a lifetime. The unity was unmatched and life was extremely enjoyable. Since that year, there have been many changes to the university that does more damage than good. The quality of life for students, especially dependent ones, has drastically changed and it has not gone unnoticed whether it be by the faculty, students, parent, or news media.
My first year was probably the best year, there were a lot of events and I felt welcomed. As the years went on, to me, it feels like they care less about upper classmen. My advisors kept on quitting, I was placed in classes I did not really need (other than electives), and they got really strict on payments and was forcing people to stay at a hotel which was way more expensive than the dorms. They are however trying to accommodate for the freshman.
The school isn’t the best at all it’s a lot of lying and sneakiness going around. Administration and advisors don’t do their jobs. They don’t listen when students complain they don’t care about sexual harassment or domestic violence or anything. They dorms are so dirty and they allowed students to live in it for semester. Our safety was at risk all the time due to the fact none of the doors to some of the rooms and building didn’t lock. They food services was terrible serving food from days ago. Half of the time it tasted like dog food. The professor barely showed up or even tried to help the students. They didn’t care that students was fighting depression or health problems they usually say suck it up. They said they was getting so much money donated but the students never saw it. They are building a new dorm when the old ones are ridiculous. This school needs to be shut down in my opinion
