I retired from SPC nine years ago as a Professor of Management and Marketing. The faculty is outstanding. They are very careful about who they hire. The core curriculum is among the best and there are many majors from which to make a choice. The entire SPC culture is designed around student development and achieving student success in all aspects of life. While there I saw some magnificent transformations, especially among challenged students. Overall, SPC is a wonderful multicultural learning community. In addition, being close to NYC is a huge cultural bonus.

Pamela, I do not intend to be mean, but as your post is so laden with grammar and spelling mistakes, it is an embarrassing statement regarding the quality of the education at St. Peter's.

As an alumni of St. Peter's it is my pleasure to share this comment on the concern this college emmits on the student body to promote the best possible outcome for the education experience. I enjoyed my time at St. Peter's, and wish I had pursued my Masters degree there. The staff was there for the students making sure that no stone was to great to be removed from the path to their success. Public Policy/Urban Studies (BS)degree
