Redland's Community College • El Reno, OK
Studying Science (completion in 2007)
• 9/26/2011
"This was a great school for my major. The class sizes were small and the curriculum was challenging."
Ratings are on a 1-10 scale
| Characteristic | Rating | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Would Recommend? | maybe | The degree I have was not for administrative assistants. My job only required that I have some kind of associate's degree. For a science degree, this was a great school to attend. |
| Program Reputation | 9 | This school is known for its curriculum relating to agriculture and science. It has a great reputation for any fields relating to these. |
| Program Quality | 9 | This school had a great science program. The classes were challenging and educational. |
| Instruction | 9 | The professors were all very knowledgeable about their subjects. They were also very helpful if I had questions. |
| How Difficult | 8 | The difficulty was on the level of a larger university. The classes were very challenging. |
| Hands-On vs. Bookish | This school placed more emphasis in hands-on learning for most of the science classes. Reading was done at home, and mostly we did labs at school. | |
| Schedule Flexibility | 3 | There was not much class flexibility since the school was so small. There were a few evening classes, and quite a few summer ones, but hardly any online courses available. |
| Academic Facilities | 9 | The facilities were mostly new and everything that I needed was readily available for my studies. The labs were all spacious and well-equipped. |
| Social Life | 6 | I was not involved in social events, but there was an opportunity for those who were inclined to participate in most of these things. |
| Placement Services | 6 | I was not contacted about these after graduation. However, I know that these services were available for those who needed help. |
| Alumni Network | 5 | I did not have much contact with these groups. They seemed to be about the average for a school this small. |
Bacone College • Muskogee, OK
Studying Recreation Management (completion in 2007)
• 10/31/2011
"School was overall a great experience for me. My professors were always willing to work with me and FOR me. I can call any of them to this day and they will still help me with whatever problem I may be encountering."

| Would Recommend? | yes | While I did not attain my degree in the field I am working in, I would still recommend Bacone to ANYONE interested in attending school. This is especially true for anyone who comes from a smaller school. Bacone's size eased the transition for me from high school to college and their student support services are second to none. Anyone who is interested in attending college and getting a degree would benefit from visiting Bacone. |
| Program Reputation | 7 | Bacone is outstanding for early childhood education. My degree program would allow me to obtain an alternative teaching certificate for kindergarten all the way through 12th grade. So as far as the program for which I attended goes, they do rather well! |
| Program Quality | 5 | My degree program helped tremendously in terms of computer training and comprehension. It was also very effective for communication skills. The only part it didn't cover effectively is business, but in the school's defense, that wasn't exactly my career plan either. |
| Instruction | 10 | Since Bacone was a smaller school, one on one time with instructors was almost unlimited. I had full access to my professors and they were all extremely helpful with whatever questions I had. |
| How Difficult | 5 | My guess is that any school that is not division one (or on the brink of being a junior college such as Bacone) would not have as difficult a degree program as one that is. I was pushed to do the very best I could, however, and was given all necessary instruction to help me get to where I needed to be. |
| Hands-On vs. Bookish | There were countless discussions on becoming lifetime learners and being always open minded to new ideas. We worked in groups and individually. The best learning was by doing and Dr. Thomason in particular was very into kinesthetic learning, so his class was geared that way, but other classes (mostly the gen ed requirements) had much more "book" learning. | |
| Schedule Flexibility | 10 | In order to graduate, my advisor taught two classes to me by arrangement only. The school was flexible enough to allow him to teach the classes to me in this way and still grant me full credit for them. |
| Academic Facilities | 5 | Bacone had a full computer lab, wifi in the dorms, and various other computers around campus available for use. The library was quite extensive as well, boasting a two story facility and also a media area. |
| Social Life | 6 | There were TONS of activities set up by the school's activities director, Colleen. She had weekly bowling trips and the setup she made for the "warrior hangout" had vending machines, pool tables, gaming consoles, and so much more. They were very accommodating in regards to helping each student attain the "college experience." |
| Placement Services | 8 | Almost every senior that walked across the stage on graduation day already had a job somewhere. Most of the students I graduated with were education majors, so where they had completed student teaching, they would retain that position. |
| Alumni Network | 3 | The alumni, in my opinion, could have done more at least in terms of donating to the school. Tuition was raised 3 times in the four years I attended. I think they could have made it a little easier on us by promoting new and existing scholarships. |
