Great place all around. There are programs for all of your learning skills that need Extra attention. Never looked down on, no matter where you come from.

Campus is renovated and technologically upgraded for the better over the past 10-15 years. Hope to attend more events and concerts. COVID-19 safety protocols were well organized and enforced. Plenty of parking and charging ports for EVs. Bicycle friendly.

It's pretty spread out and not easy to get around. My daughter had issues getting a simple student ID card. Online classes are okay.

Was disappointed because I had to walk my son on campus to show him his class where they posted the wrong number on the door. Glad I spoke to Christina at EOPS who was VERY helpful and helping my son find his classes and helped him with a computer. Thank you so much Christina for the awesome job for looking out for your students.

Went there for several semesters. Good student activities. Involved a student body, good course selection, knowledgeable staff and the DRC student services center is super helpful.
