    Shaw was ok until they started taking evening classes at cape sites and putting them online. Shaw is expensive. Shaw is getting better at online classes.

    The cool academic wise. Other than that, Shaw is horrible. Horrible, high school like campus. LIBRARY IS TERRIBLE, no A/C, therefore it is HOT and you will not be able to do work there. No internet in your rooms unless you have your own wifi hot spot. So it's basically like fail!!!
