There are not manyAverageCriminal
There are not many activities on campus ( or they are not spoken of often).This college is great for people who have been away from college for a long period of time. It is also great for those who do not think college is for them and want to "try" college out first. The cost is very reasonable.

Question
Wait, am I in college or high school?Quite BrightAnthropology
Wait, am I in college or high school? From the difficulty of the classwork I would say that this is more like high school. Some of the teacher at BCC should not even be teaching. Actually, with the exception of some of my science and art classes, I would say that this is the vast majority of the teachers.

Many of the students have no place in college. It really lessens the classroom experience when you have students who still act like they are in high school (disrupting the class). One of my English classes had a student whin "I can't read Hamlet, I don't know any of this Shakesphere language crap." The not so brilliant teacher responded "Yes, I know early English is hard at first." If you an English teacher, shouldn't you know that Hamlet is in fact written in modern English? But then, that's BCC for you.If you go to the Cocoa Campus, I suggest making sure you car is locked and you don't take night classes. This isn't the greatest part of town.

Question
This school could be one of the premierQuite BrightPsychology
This school could be one of the premier community colleges in the country; however, the lack of attention to detail with regard to the staff and faculty has made it one of the very worst. The arrogance and condescension that is displayed from the top of the ladder, on down to the bottom rung, is what is holding this college back. There is NO accountability on the part of the faculty or staff for their rude and hostile behavior's. The student is consistently held to a high standard of performance, along with a protocol of behavior, but the faculty and staff are constantly lacking in manners, professionalism and knowledge for their individual job descriptions. Forget about getting a straight answer from financial aid, they just sit around and eat all day. They have no knowledge of the current laws that exist nor do they care. They get paid to sit on their lazy hind ends and chat on the phone and eat. The advisors are no better, they will direct you into the wrong classes, or they will be misinformed of the class requirements that exist for entrance. The information specialist's, the cashiers, and any other employee of BCC seem to have some prima donna complex. They are rude and hostile each and every time they are approached. I have emailed the President of the school, the provost and any other top presiding official but to no response. They seem to like losing student to competing schools and with the innovation of online classes, I suspect that attendance will be dwindling quite quickly. My advice is to save your time, money and sanity and attend any other community college in the central Florida area!
