    I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Hinds these past two years. I participated in band, choir, and the Honors Program. All of them have been excellent and have allowed me to make new friends.

    Even though I am away from home and on my own, Hinds-Raymond is no enviorment to call home. Hinds @ Raymond most students commute, the students who stay in the dorms most go home on weekends. It is a very lonely place, nothing for entertainment, the town is small and has very little in it besides a gas station and dollar general, and all closes around the area about 9ish at night. Police presence is EVERYWHERE, from campus to state and it is almost as if Hinds Community College is in a police like state, is a jail itself. Staff is very unfriendly and non understanding, fellow peers enjoy using one another, fighting, drinking and doing illegal drugs, as well as theiving. I would not reccomend this school to anyone who wants to actually apply themselves at a higher level after high school.

    Hinds is not a big campus, but there are activities that go on throughout the year that keep students involved. I stay on the campus so we get excited about everything that goes on so we can have something to keep us occupied.

    The student body is fairly friendly, the faculty is usually amazing, but it's not a large university and there is no party scene. A lot of people commute, and the campus is dead on the weekends.
