Pros

You can’t make a living as an adjunct in higher education, but it was a nice side gig. The people I worked with were very positive and supportive and I learned a lot as well.

Cons

Higher education is going through a tough time right now and the program I taught in was eliminated. There will be more down siding and consolidation in the years ahead.

Pros

I taught at Doane University for seventeen years. It's a very good school with great professors and many programs from which to choose. Nebraska is an awesome state, and Lincoln is my favorite city in America (I've lived all over the United States, too). If you're looking for a personalized education where you'll get lots of attention from your professors - and if you'd like a peaceful setting in which to pursue your studies - then I'd highly consider Doane University as you contemplate where you'd like to pursue your higher education. Grade: A

Cons

Students from out-of-state may sense a lack of culture in Nebraska. But this isn't true. There is culture everywhere, especially in Lincoln and Omaha. You may have to drive a little bit to reach these cultural hubs, especially if you live on the main campus in Crete, but Nebraska is a beautiful state, so the drive is definitely worth it. Lots to see and do in Nebraska. It gets cold, so wear a jacket :-)
