    The education is pretty good for what is, the teachers are pretty hit or miss I'll be honest. Some of them are so kind and helpful and the class is great, but others are just miserable to have a class with. The canteen and library are great, and I have made plenty of wonderful friends!

    I really liked SPCC (I attended the Polkton campus). I found that the staff were always super nice and helpful, and most of the professors actually cared about teaching. There were some stand out teachers who really had a passion for teaching and would always be a joy to see at an 8am class. The food was average (small store and vending machines) and the only athletics were disk golf. Overall, it's a nice little community college.
    The thing about south piedmont community college, you do have professors and a good student director to help you out. It may not seem all good at first, but, once you become acquainted on campus it gets better. There's loads of things to do on campus. It's just about having everyone participating and having fun and learning while at it
