Pros
The school has a rich history of providing opportunities to underserved populations.
Cons
Key administrative positions have been incompetent and/or corrupt for years, axing people that intimidate them with glee. I have no idea how they survived their last SACSCOC reaccreditation cycle. Funding is siphoned to beautification projects rather than solving problems like leaking pipes, toxic mold, and gun-toting squatters in dorms. God forbid we ever pour money into things like upgrading from Windows Vista computers or buying library books from before the year the housing bubble popped. Security is left on less than a shoestring meaning staff who are scheduled to work late into the night do so with no safety officers checking in. The faculty treat you like dirt if you are staff and are not from a background they like. Granted, they treat each other like dirt as well, scrabbling and scraping at each other to get ahead. The pay is crap unless you are a favorite or nepotism hire, of which there have been many over the years.
