I attended some cultural events and they were great. + Great selection of majors and courses. + Somewhat prestigious. + In beautiful Ohio. The not-so-good: - Expensive. - Kind of in the middle of nowhere. Gambier is nothing..... - Therefore, kind of far from a decent town. Columbus is your best bet.... Good to visit, not sure about being an actual student. And thus ends my really short review for the day. Cheers.

Great memories over four years at Denison University's athletic complex in Granville Ohio with…read moreWashU Swimming. The complex is maybe ten years old, but looks new. It houses indoor track, tennis and swimming. My visits after Thanksgiving have been at their annual Denison Invitational Meet with my son. The school uses the opportunity to fundraise the local food bank. My specific experience with the school is through swimming only. So the rating has nothing to do with academics, although I know from ratings and word of mouth it is a strong D3 school. The pool is a looker. It's a 50 meter with diving wells. They also installed a very large spectator area to hold large events like conference and the Denison Invitational. However, a star deduction with air quality issues over the years. This makes competing much harder. So long Denison University. My son has graduated out of this meet and it will be missed. Not just the facility, but the people and memories it holds.

The lockers were great, except there was no hot water to take a shower possibly due to the weather. I would to come back to the Trumbull Aquatic Center at The Mitchell Center to swim with an alumni person and current team members. Thank you Denison University for the Aquatic Center.

This is a review of the John Glenn Gym, where they play basketball…read more It was hard to click "yay, I'm a fan!" We visited to see Sweetie's brother play basketball against Muskingum. I've been doing a bit of a tour of small college athletic facilities lately; maybe I should do more reviews and make a list. Anyway. I was very impressed with this place. It's a fairly new building. The architecture is somewhat interesting, and the layout works well. The court itself is a great place to see a game. Sound and lighting were good, fan access was great, the bleachers were comfortable. Restrooms and concessions are convenient. All in all, a great place to visit. And we won. I had hoped to visit the Glenn museum but it's closed this time of year. The town is small, and we didn't see much of it. The school is also small but the campus is nice. I don't think I'd mind living there.

For my milestone 100th review, I just have to give props to my Alma Mater, THE Ohio University,…read moreest. 1804. This is not to be confused with Ohio STATE University, home of the Buckeyes. They are _much_ better at football. It really did get me to where I am today despite the recent bad press. For the most part, colleges give me a tad bit of anxiety. Visiting UC Davis recently, I felt like I forgot to write a paper, or that I need to go to class, or that I was missing valuable drinking time before class. Remembering what year it was and that I was a big boy now eased these pains, but reassured me that I wasn't going to get my Master's anytime soon. In any case, here are the things I miss from going to school here: TONY'S : This was a locals bar, but also my favorite. Warm Killian's Irish Red and Coors Light on tap just added to the experience of classic rock music and drunk townies. You will likely see me wear a T-Shirt advertising this bar. THE GREEN : Just a nice patch of grassy land underneath enormous trees. I would often go here while I cut class on very nice spring days. JEFF' HILL : Short for Jefferson Hill that is now closed due to bad road conditions (most of the uptown is paved in brick. The kind that would trip the unsuspecting pedestrian and cause their drunk friends to laugh incessantly). There were many a sledding on cafeteria trays here during snow storms. RTV BUILDING : This is where I got my Communication Systems Management degree. In the bowels of this building, I was at class almost all week. Though I would think this area would bring me anxiety, this is where I first realized that I was finally _getting_ college. COURT STREET : The main street of the small University (population 30,000, which was also about the number of students who in attendance). Though it's gotten a bit commercialized in the past few years, I will always remember the many strolls down the street looking for a place to eat or imbibe alcohol. I am sure I will keep adding to this list as I remember more things that I miss. If you have a chance, visit this small campus. I know I will be for years to come.

Though there are a number of different campuses of The Ohio State University, the large campus that…read moremost people not familiar with ASU think about is the Columbus Campus. This campus offers a liberal arts college feeling with many with many buildings, students, staff, faculty, and resources. Similar to many other large campuses or schools across the country, it feels like it is always under construction as new buildings, athletic facilities, and residence halls are built each year. As Ohio State is one of the largest public universities in the country, there is something for everyone whether in-person or online. At Ohio State, every student has the potential to feel connected with resources and it there is certainly always something happening whether at the Ohio Union, at the Recreation and Physical Activity Center (RPAC), or in the residence halls or any of the athletics facilities including the Horseshoe (Ohio Stadium). More than 14,000 students live on-campus, and the majority of about 67,000 Ohio State students take courses on the Columbus Campus. While campus resources are easily located in the Ohio Union and Lincoln Tower, many other buildings across the Columbus Campus have academic offices or other student services. The Ohio State staff, faculty, and partners certainly try to do everything they can to support all of the students to ensure they are set up to succeed at Ohio State. Originally founded as only a fraction of the Columbus Campus of today in 1870, the campus has grown by leaps and bounds over the years. Even a student who graduated just over 20 years ago, I am surprised in what the campus looks like today. In fact, I just visited campus for the first time in many years last month and barely recognize parts of campus. Even now, big construction projects include the Mirror Lake District Renovation, North Residential District Renewal, and multi-phase William Oxley Thompson Library Renovation. In fact, as of 2022, there were more than 1400 current construction projects in the works across all Ohio State campuses. As the campus continues to grow, the number of buildings on campus continue to increase. In addition to more commonly visited areas like the Oval, the Ohio Union, and the RPAC, there is the Thompson Library and Ohio Stadium. There is also the Wexner Center for the Arts, the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum, the Orton Geological Museum, Mirror Lake, the Arne Slettebak Planetarium, Buckeye Grove, the Schottenstein Center, and so many other spots. My regular places to have visited when I was a student were Ramseyer Hall (where I took most of my classes), Taylor Tower, Mack Hall, and Bradley-Paterson residence halls. At Ohio State, every student can drive their own experience as they engage in the events and resources on-campus while attending classes, getting an on-campus job, landing an internship or full-time job, joining clubs and organizations, attending many free events and activities, and so much more. The many student services offices at Ohio State are always there for students, and it's easy to find your way towards graduation and your future when taking advantage of these resources. I look forward to seeing what comes next on such a large and lively campus such as Ohio State in the coming years!

Hocking is a giant waste of time & money…read more General education classes are a waste of money here. The professor's have randomly quit in the middle of the semester on multiple occasions. They do not value the student education, they want to cash in on the tuition and do the bare minimum. Teachers refuse to teach, aside from a few great professors. The same professors will tell you that it is a terrible school. Unluckily for me, it's the only school in a 3 hour radius that has the program I am interested in, or I would have definitely chosen differently for myself. I truly wish there was something I could do to combat the absurd amount of cow-shit this school has put me through but I signed up for this cash grab I guess.

I've experienced an incredibly stressful and disappointing process with Franklin University.

During this time, the university repeatedly violated its own policies by missing response deadlines they established. After nearly three months, I won my grade appeal, demonstrating that my concerns were valid. However, I am now facing another roadblock: the university registrar's office has not updated my transcript to reflect my earned degree. Because of this, I am missing out on job opportunities, a salary increase, and I am unable to apply to master's programs. My academic and professional life has been in limbo since November, and despite my efforts to follow every required process, the university has shown little urgency or concern for how these delays are impacting me as a student and working professional. This has been one of the most stressful experiences of my academic journey, and I would caution prospective students to consider whether this level of institutional responsiveness aligns with their expectations.
