"It's a good university. Its Computer Science has very special emphasis area that not many schools teach. I like its location. It's quiet and there is not a large population here. One thing I don't like is it's hard for me to find a position here."

"I like my graduate program. It's more that what I had expected by far but exactly what I need. I do wish that campus dinning had more options than Subway and the dinning hall."

"I came to this school as a backup once I did not get into any of my preferred schools, but have been pleasantly surprised with the amount of hands on education and development I have received. The school is not that small, but yet there is still an extremely friendly, supportive, and helpful mix of students and faculty. I have developed my sociological and statistical skills immensely over the past year and and very happy with the education I am receiving here. I would be lying if I did not admit to a few issues and dis-satisfactions during my time here, but the positives definitely overshadow the negatives."
