Due to COVID-19 the ending of winter quarter was switched to online. I’d never taken an online course before, so it was a drastic change for me. Spring quarter was online as well, and it was much simpler than winter. I had a better understanding of my schools canvas, my professors started to develop a better understanding on how to teach their traditional in-person classes online. There were struggles at times with understanding the work, but my professors were good at responding to emails and helping in a timely manner. I also discovered resources and services that Pierce College provides for their students, as in tutoring, counseling, study groups etc. For not having a lot of time to prepare for online classes, professors, students, and administrators did an amazing job at converting over and keeping in contact with all the members of the school. Overall it was an astronomical learning experience for myself, my peers and my professors and now, I will always expect the unexpected!
My experience with Pierce College was better than I expected. I attended Pierce for two years right before transferring to a different school. I originally planned on joining the Dental Hygiene program but ultimately decided to go into a different field, thankfully all of my credits were transferrable! Some things I loved about Pierce college were the student and staff diversity and the beautiful on-campus lake you can walk around to soak up some nature. The cheap cafeteria food wasn't bad when you're on a budget and they also offer a free food pantry for students in need of a meal. They also offer free scantrons and lots of opportunities for donating blood and joining very diverse clubs. The biggest positive of Pierce College is that they offer a program for adults to receive their diploma if they're a few credits shy of their diploma. It only cost $25.00. I wouldn't be as far into college career if it wasn't for Pierce College.
Amazing and diverse community college that is constantly expanding areas of study! The volume of curriculum allows a student to carry a number of classes each quarter, and assistance from staff and professors is amazing. The college works hard to promote the students to take multiple fields of study, and earn several degrees and certificates through the course of their education. The library is amazing with knowledgeable staff that can find or get anything to assist you in your academic research studies. The digital lab allows you to create without stress, and staff that has a full knowledge of available software and tools. Student life is very supported and highly diverse in international studies ranging from other languages to cultural activities. The stem staff is there to help with organizing and cleaning up your computer issues and assisting with math and sciences homework as well as a full range of tutoring services available to all students for free.
