This school is a crock, and they are only after your tuition money! They are not interested in assisting their students with services like scholarship information for outside funding opportunities, they think that they do not need any improvements because of a long history... and it's when we think so highly of ourselves that we fall on our faces ... dan justin, d.o.a. is a jerk who needs to be fired. all the faculty does is create a dramatic and unpleasant place to work.
