The classes are very enjoyable, and fun, and my daughter always looks forward to attending each week. CMA does an excellent job structuring the lessons in a way that keeps the children engaged, involved, and paying attention throughout the entire class. I really appreciate how the learning environment is both educational and playful, which makes it perfect for young children. It's clear that a lot of thought goes into making the lessons interactive and age-appropriate. I highly recommend this academy to any parents looking to introduce their children to music in a positive and engaging way. Also, the two music teachers (Donna Carlin and Mrs. Peg) we've had have been amazing and have over 20 years of experience.

This is a great prestigious old school that offers a first rate education. The option to take night…read moreclasses instead of overpriced, overcrowded day school courses was for me a no brainer. The night school instructors were all really cool, and understanding if you had to work a long day shift job before you got to class. The professors in general are a bit of a hit or a miss, especially in online courses. Some are excellent, with long histories of teaching and with doctorates degrees that they use to provide the best quality classes every single day, and other professors make your life difficult for no reason, and couldn't care less if you even show up at all. The campus is beautiful and you feel a great degree of history here. I attended here for two years after transferring from another school, and I feel like I never fully explored the place. The campus security is a bit over the top, since I got a parking ticket when I was still enrolling and wasn't yet a student for parking in the wrong direction. I didn't know any better and managed to get it dismissed, but it was a bit of a weird charge. I can't give Drury 5/5, simply because of the price. With a private school, you don't expect tuition to be cheap, but this school is EXPENSIVE. There's really no reason for day school to be so exorbitantly costly, unless you're purely paying for the degree. Outside of the cost, Drury is a good school with good instructors that is generally well worth your time.

So yes this is also a very bias opinion. I go to and work at this university. Have for six years…read morenow in total and wanted to contrast the opinion from so many years ago. Education: This place is first rate. The professors are some of the best in their fields, the class sizes are around 20 students, and coursework current. In my time as a student here I've been taught by retired FBI Directors, Judges, and professors that hold one if not more doctorates. Classes are challenging but also fair. I really can't say enough about the education here. Life: Drury has a large extracurricular activity catalog. There are tons of groups of various sizes, purposes, and commitment levels. You really can find a group or hobby that fits almost any interest. We recommend them to students to help them adjust to campus life. We also have a thriving Greek organizations but in contrast to the first reviewer who was a student of mine the groups only make up 27 percent of the student body. A large amount buy by no means a most of the campus. We have an outstanding Campus Recreation office and they hosts intramural for tons of sports. Administration: Dedicated to see you graduate and being a good thriving individual in your next adventure. I had to giggle a little at the first review and think back to an 80s Evil Dean character. If you want an honest answer yes you will be ticketed for violating policies and the process is designed around learning outcomes. Plus I challenge you to visit the university website and review their community standards. I'm sure you will find the policies fair and very similar to that of any university or community for that matter. I can honestly say its not a violation factory but when you are working with people who are on their own for the very first time boundaries are often tested. Overall and in a very bias way I am proud to be a Drury student and Staff member. This university has given me a sense of pride and accomplishment that I can take with me the rest of my life and an education that promises to make that life an interesting one.

The director just sits and hides behind there policy's and there guard dogs and act like the kids are dumb. My kid said they said snow and acts like he doesn't know what that mean.

I have struggled to find counseling that I can afford and I was excited to learn that Burrell would take my insurance (Ambetter) and it would be basically free. They got me in for intake pretty much right away. The building is kinda confusing, but everyone was helpful giving me directions. They took my information and told me they would schedule an intake session but left me waiting for a while before telling me that they actually were going to call to schedule. Then it was about two weeks before I was scheduled for intake. That intake was rescheduled a few times. I loved the girl I did the intake with. I heard nothing after the intake. I called about a month after and they said they would call me when I could meet with someone. I didn't hear anything for 3 months. Finally started meeting with a therapist. I'd met with intern counselors in the past, so I was excited to be with a licensed therapist. She was fine, I guess. I didn't dislike her. I will say that I thought meeting in her office was weird and impersonal. Her office felt kinda chaotic and not really client oriented. It felt like if you were in a realtor's office or something. By week three we were still doing intake stuff... We never got to any actual therapy before I left. Also, just a personal issue, but my main issue is anxiety and she literally told me that anxiety is healthy and we were not going to work on it. I understood what she was saying, but it felt very invalidating.

I've been a patient of the psychiatric department at this practice for over a year. Calling my…read moreprovider is extremely frustrating. The phone menus are too long and sometimes confusing. The call-in system badly needs an overhaul. When I do reach the correct area to leave a voicemail, the response sometimes takes several hours or often occurs the next business day. Only if I need acute care, this is the only option to get immediate help, which I rarely need. Communication with my provider is extremely difficult to obtain, other than having an in-person appointment. As for scheduling a follow-up appointment, I never get an appointment when my provider wants me to return. Sometimes this is delayed several weeks after the needed time. These issues are terribly unhealthy for a mental health practice and need to be addressed as soon as possible.
