    This college is a good school to start out with if you are scared to enter the big school campus. The campus is small so it is easy to get around and find where you are going. The dorms are also close to the school so it makes for faster transit. Not only is the campus small but the town is small too which means it's easy to find places like stores and restaurants. Everyone is kind here and it's a good place to find new friends. Again, if you're scared of going to a larger school, this is a good place to start out with!

    I liked the small campus, some of the professors do care about students and want them to succeed which is nice, but some don't which was discouraging. Overall I enjoyed my experience here and expanded my knowledge.
    The college is in a small town surburban area. There is a small student to teacher ratio allowing for a personal teaching experience. The campus offers a wide arrange of sports and provides up to an associates degree. The faculty are very personal and the food is above average. Best of all it provides an affordable education that can transition to a four year University.
