WCCCD is a very mixed bag. I have had some really amazing professors while others have been awful. I'd say overall though they are usually pretty good. Again, I've had very mixed experiences with advising and just getting any type of information from the college. Some advisors won't really do anything for you while some are on it and have the answers to all your questions and will give them to you straight without any complications. I have come across some really helpful people on the phone but my go-to is to call the Center for Distance Learning and ask for Rachel. She is very prompt and will look thinks up for you. She's super helpful if I've gotten a string of people who don't know things and won't look them up. I will say that the college administration as a whole is disorganized. While it's not something that comes up often, it's super apparent when something goes wrong. I've had other confusing experiences with them but they initially handled Covid worse than any other college.
It really just depends on the professor. I had a human ecology professor who didn't contact us for two weeks when things moved online. I emailed him about how we would be doing assignments and didn't hear from him. Three weeks later someone told me that I had missed 3 papers and 9 Zoom meetings. I later found out that he left 1 voicemail with no followup and refused to respond to emails under any circumstances even though he stated that he viewed them. He then proceeded to spew conspiracy theories at the randomly scheduled time of 9 pm 3 days a week over Zoom. Some have been great with few tech issues. Another professor this semester though wrote her entire syllabus wrong and won't post dates on her assignments, all of which she posted the first day. I'm still waiting on an email from a week ago asking if a paper is due, which one, when, and what the directions are because she didn't post any of that. I think the issue is that WCCCD doesn't hold their teachers accountable...
I love Wayne County Community College! It has a beautiful campus with amazing, helpful and well trained staff. There's never a dull moment, and it has truly became my home away from home. Plus, you go there for two years for free(if you are fresh from high school)!
