Where to begin? RMCAD has the potential to be a great post-secondary art education institution -…read morethey have a beautiful intimate campus, and a great student-to-teacher ratio for in-person classes, and yet, they still fall short in so many ways. Post-COVID, on-campus enrollment plummeted--over 80% of students didn't return to in-person classes, leaving roughly 150 students now on campus each term. This caused major issues, including a lack of available in-person classes required for your major, and frequent professor reassignments. Instructors often don't know what they're teaching until one or two weeks before a term starts, leading to severe underpreparedness and a poor learning experience. Faculty professionalism is another major issue. While a few professors genuinely care about their students and try to do a good job, most fall short. So far, I would say only 30% of the professors I've had have been average / good, while the other 70% have been underprepared, unqualified to teach, and quite frankly don't seem like they even want to be here. The education quality is often worse than public high school and incomparable to my previous college experience. One professor didn't bother to grade assignments for the last four weeks of class, ignored feedback requests from her students, and openly talked about her desire to leave RMCAD. Instead of teaching, she spent most of our class time shopping online and watching TV shows--yet she remains employed despite official documented student complaints. What does that tell you about the quality of education here and the school's priorities? Some of the course curriculum being taught raises eyebrows too; there are many mistakes, out-of-order learning units, and outdated information in the LMS (learning management system), which each class is supposed to follow, whether you are an on-ground or online student. If you take classes online, not having direct access to your professor necessitates a lot of back-and-forth communication and easily creates confusion, whenever there are blatant mistakes in the learning module you are supposed to be following, since online classes do not have professors that lecture. RMCAD also struggles with student retention due to institutional ineffectiveness and poor communication. A major frustration is the inability to schedule your own classes, an unusual policy for higher education. While students can submit scheduling preferences, these are ignored 90% of the time. The registrar's office frequently assigns students to classes that don't fit their availability, even when better options exist. This makes maintaining a job or arranging childcare extremely difficult. Every term, I've had to fight for schedule corrections, despite clear solutions being available from the start - they just always get overlooked by the people in charge of making your schedule. If you try to be proactive, efforts to resolve issues are met with endless runarounds and finger-pointing between departments. Promised follow-ups rarely happen, requiring students to chase answers repeatedly. Younger, first-time college students would likely find this process even more frustrating. Despite being paying customers, students must constantly advocate for themselves to receive basic services. Despite being a student at RMCAD for less than a year, these are not the only alarming issues I've encountered here - I could go on but am limited by Google's review character count maximum. The root issue is that students are not RMCAD's priority. Instead, financial interests seem to dominate decision-making, which makes sense given it's a for-profit institution. Unfortunately, leadership seems unaware that taking care of students would, in turn, improve the school's financial health. The campus's main owners and the college's president all lack backgrounds in education, and this disconnect reverberates throughout the institution. As a result, students receive a poor experience and low-quality education, making RMCAD an unworthy investment.

I chose Denver College of Nursing and it has been great!…read more The instructors have been incredibly supportive and genuinely want their students to succeed. They make themselves available during office hours, are always willing to answer questions, and often spend extra time helping students who need it. On top of that, the school offers free tutoring for every class, which has been an amazing resource. Nursing school is challenging, and I think it's important for prospective students to understand that success requires a significant time commitment. I spend around 20 hours a week studying outside of class, and for me, not working while in the program has made a huge difference. This isn't an easy program, but if you're willing to put in the time and effort, there are plenty of resources and people who genuinely want to help you succeed. I've had a very positive experience so far and would absolutely recommend Denver College of Nursing to anyone who is prepared for the hard work that nursing school requires.

For instance, as a neurodivergent individual, I complained about too much noise in the library (which is mostly empty, with the exception of a couple of very loud librarians and maybe one person playing video games or chatting on their cellphone). A bunch of administrators started yelling at me (almost threatening to expel me) when I complained that the library was too loud. When I tried to make an appointment with the head librarian, he didn't show up for the meeting on time and did not answer my emails. Although the school talks a big game about diversity, there are no elevators for people with disabilities. I took a class in which the male instructor kept using the word "Karen" to refer to older ladies. I thought that seemed a little sexist. Overall, it did not feel very professional. I was not too comfortable at this school. They need to think more carefully about how to accommodate neurodiverse people and individuals with disabilities. It also feels like there are too many administrators and not enough decently paid instructors who have the time to create decent lesson plans.

These were originally presented on the basement walls surrounding the Department's classrooms and offices, but more recently a formal art gallery has been created in the spaces surrounding the Community Room. This is immediately to your right as you go in the main entrance to the College. The new gallery is quite nice. There's a long, rectangular space and also a rotunda-like area immediately outside the Community Room. Be sure you go through the double doors at the rear of the front gallery to get into the second space. The gallery is open during all campus hours. Occasionally the rear doors are locked, but if you call Campus Security, they will be happy to let you in. The gallery presents student work, but also shows featuring the Lakewood community interspersed with material of regional and sometimes greater significance. It's a bit of a drive for me, but the campus is pretty and a visit to the gallery makes for a relaxing afternoon.
