Western Illinois University...

This morning I received a survey in the mail form WIU, asking me what my experience was like. I kinda laughed. I cannot recall a single good experience at WIU.

Here is why:

1. I had to fight for my degree,
     but I did have Seth and another administrator bend over backwards to help me.
2. I had to do 10 classes over again, even though I got A's and B's in them.
3. I had to do my basic classes over again at Black Hawk College.
    In Science which I took Astrology and Geology,
    English which I had to do 101 and 102,
    and a Language class which I took Spanish.
4. I have two prior Associates Degrees and they did not carry over. 
5. One degree was in Business and they wanted me to do all of my classes over again.
    Just to get a Business Degree.
6. So I went for a General Education Degree and later an Art degree.
7. It took five years instead of two to get my BA.
    And this was going to school full time, including doing summer classes.
8. I had disputes with parking.
    Being on disability and having to pay to park in the parking lot,
    just to park in the parking lot to park in handicap parking was wrong.
    I had to end up parking on the street and walking to campus.

The only good experience was getting my BA degree.

I would not wish my bad experiences at Western Illinois University with anyone.
