  • Location is everything. Buildings easy walking not far from one another. Close to community if not in the middle of community.

  • This review is solely based on the library, which is open 24 hours of the day. The library comes with a Starbucks, and four floors providing ample amount of seating. The furniture is quite nice, and relatively comfortable. There are a great deal of computers to be used by students, and it comes with a gender inclusive bathroom on each level. All in all it provides a nice environment for study.
  • Beautiful campus, lots of history for locals, Basketball, YMCA, Boy Scouts, Gymnastics, Dance & more. Explore it & learn it's more than just a great small college...
