Today I attended an Open House session at St. Joseph College…read more The Open House was well organized and the campus tour give by the students (two freshman) was informative. The campus is spread over two block and is near the Pratt institute campus. My impression of this college is very positive. Plus- Small school, personal attention, small classes. 90% of the student body are commuters. Neighbor is historical- Clinton Hill. School is close to the city. The tuition is reasonable for a private school. The story is acessible by subway (G-train) and buses on Mytle Ave. and Dekalb Ave. (This review is from the view poinr of a parent with a college bound child.)

The school isn't hard to find, but trying to figure which building the administration is very hard…read more The trees need trimming because it covers the signs. The library and classrooms need a huge makeover because everything looks like a public primary school. 13 block walk from Dekalb ave station. The people are nice, but the school isn't organized. Being a non-matriculated student here, I did not get on the right foot in. I do not take classes physically here but the problems I had to encounter do not make me want to take any in the future. I was charged for a $716 mandatory insurance because I was "placed" on a list with the matriculated students. And I didn't get any prior physical mail until an invoice came to my doorstop. The problem was taken care of, but they need better correspondence to their students before giving students private information to companies without the students consent. Yes, this school is in a historic area, but hey, this is the 21st century and you are in NYC, upgrade please!

All my professors, counselors, and directors, have been really helpful and I have great adoration for them. They helped in the past transition as a transfer student to get my Bachelors; now they are helping me obtain my Masters. Classes are remote because of the pandemic. However the on campus computer labs are still open, extremely useful for me because I'm able to get my graphic intensive work done on powerful computers. The lab assistants are helpful as well when they are there and the place is kept very clean. The college also offers workshops with professors and professionals in field which help re-inspire my goals and aspirations, all remote so I can attend them while studying. Great! Looking forward to another semester at Touro Graduate School of Technology.

Upon receiving my bachelor's degree in computer science, I decided to continue on and get my Master of Art degree at the Touro College Graduate School of Technology. Within a week of finishing my classes, I spoke with the Web and Multimedia Design program director and she got me into some of the graduate classes right away. I think it is very important for students to continue their education and not waste anytime in between undergrad and grad so that they do not forget the many wonderful things that they have learned. I am in my last semester of Touro GST and I could honestly say this is a great school and I would recommend it to anybody who is looking to further their education in the future.

There's a cafeteria, the Student Resource Center is located on the second floor, the LGBTQ center is on the 6th floor, and it's a great place to go in order to use a computer, print, meet friends, do homework, or lounge around. The views of the city from the 10th floor are absolutely amazing. Or if the Pavilion is closed, you can go to a lower floor to see the city. Check it out!

If there is a more noble cause in this area, I'd like to see it…read more America's largest Chinatown is only getting bigger. And with that, the community of Chinese immigrants both old and new become less dependent on having to communicate with the world beyond the hood's borders. Usage of English already varies throughout the many ethnic enclaves of NYC, but the largest, most concentrated one Manhattan needs none of it to thrive. Locals who aren't part of English speaking social groups or in the service industry don't have the luxury of being able to practice their English skills often. Enter the Chinatown Manhattan Project. Instead of the expensive ESL courses offered by other private institutions, this strictly not-for-profit organization is the kind of real world training that many locals would benefit from. Employment services, vocational training, and computer literacy are just some of the areas the CMP can assist with low-income immigrant / refugee individuals. When it comes to subjects that matter, affordable education is a win-win for all. I've had the pleasure of occasional volunteering for the English conversation program and it's hard not to see the value immediately. Many of the folks coming in the doors are from all walks of life, usually limited in their English ability and are just looking for an opportunity to converse with a native speaker on a variety of subjects for 90 minutes a session. It may seem like a ho-hum exercise for some, but for many attending the classes, this is likely the only English they'll speak all week. All volunteer programs make a difference. A helping hand makes an impression for all who are involved in the project. This is a program that ought to receive additional funding and attention for the good vibes it provides to the Chinatown community. As Chinatown continues its seemingly never ending expansion, programs like this are only going to be in greater demand. It is a rewarding experience that I can't thank class leader Nelson W enough for letting me be a part of it. For all folks who are looking to contribute their time through goodwill, I highly recommend volunteering at the CMP as their way of giving back.

Formerly known as Chinatown Manpower Project, CMP (Career Mobility Partnership) is one of the…read morelongest running community workforce and economic development organization located in the heart of downtown Manhattan. I have volunteered with CMP for over ten years now as a project manager for adult education programs, and the organization continues to do a great job addressing poverty, under-employment, and entrepreneurship needs for Asians, Asian Americans and first-generation immigrants who struggle with barriers to education and employment. CMP is helping the community overcome these barriers by offering support and resources for English writing/speaking skills, career counseling, and job training skills. For Asian Americans like myself, I find that many in our community actually do not have the ability to speak the native language. CMP facilitates that as well by offering Mandarin classes for all speaking levels. Prices are affordable and the teachers are excited to help you learn. I can't speak for others in the class, but my Mandarin skills are definitely improving!

My review is for the Fashion Museum and their event programming, and nothing else…read more I've been visiting the museum for years and have appreciated their curatorial eye. Their choices always feel on point with what's happening in the zeitgeist. Some exhibits I really enjoyed include: Claire McCardell, Dior & Balenciaga, Ravishing: The Rose in Fashion, Force of Nature, Pink: The History of a Punk, Pretty, Powerful Color. In addition, they also have really great talks and symposiums. I went to one recently with Robin Givhan speaking about her Virgil Abloh book. Did I mention that pretty much all of their exhibits and talks are free? Pretty incredible that NYC has this amazing treasure trove of an institution.

Admission is free, it is readily accessible by subway, and there is a charming red carpet leading directly to the exhibit space, which I thought was very clever. The designs themselves are lovely - I would have bought several of the dresses / pieces on display! And it's really fun to see what the designers of tomorrow are creating today. This is a lovely way to spend an hour or so.

I was the only one in my class with Zero SQL experience and my instructor took care of me while not totally dragging the class down. I'll be back to TCC. I just wish the desks had a little more room. And hey! Free cokes, diet cokes, water and coffee!! Course: SQL Level 1 Instructor: Jeanette. She was great. She really knows her stuff. 5 stars for her. The Class: 5 students The Room: Small desks. I"m a pretty big guy but since there was only five of us, I had enough room. That said, if the room was full it would've been very cramped and too close for comfort. They do offer free coffee, coke, diet coke and bottled water though which was a nice bonus. The COMPARE with PACE: I've taken two classes at Pace University in Midtown (Bookkeeping and Quick Books). This was my first at TCC. Pace has cleaner and roomier facilities without a doubt. But for me, it ultimately comes down to the instructors. What did I learn? My TCC instructor, Jeanette, was excellent. Of my two instructors at Pace, one was on par with Jeanette, and was was below par with Jeanette. I learned a ton and Jeanette was great. The desks are tiny, though, and I would've been miserable if there had been a full room. Furthermore, the facilities in general are run down. Look, I'm not expecting the Ritz, but would a carpet cleaning and a fresh coat of paint hurt anyone?

Classes are like a full day at from, they are from 9-5pm with a 15 minute morning break, one hour lunch break and finally another 15 minute afternoon break. The rooms are really small and uncomfortable, no place to hang your coats but they do have a small fridge that offers all types of sodas and water and a coffee machine. Three stars for the instructor and convenience to get to but the missing 2 stars for the size of the rooms and lack of comfort.
