This is the worst school experience ever. Communication is shunned. Arrogance is rampant. Dishonesty within the school is covered up. The list goes on.

Cold institutional feel to this school. Robotic education at it's best. Academic programs seem more to suit the schools image and award acquisition than enrich students. Disappointing.
