    No matter how crazy this school makes me sometimes, I know that getting my BSRN there is the smartest thing I could possibly do.

    To come out of school with Biology degree for the price is fantastic. I'm an adult returning to school after 10 years, so I was not able to go to some of the more expensive private schools & justsify the cost. The state tuition of $10,000/year is a total bargain.

    It's a pretty good school for the price. Everything is close, everyone knows each other, the professors seem to care.
