Categories Comments Campus Safety The campus is fairly a safe on. Just drive slow and make sure you dont hit anyone walking to class or mowing the lawn. This last symester a 70 yr old man mowing the campus lawn was hit and killed.
Clubs and Activities There are clubs and activies there, but none peaked my interest.
Great for these types of students Great for the working student with a family at home.
Food and Dining I never really ate much from the cafe.
Dorm Life No dorm life at this college
Academic Rigor Study, Study, Study.
Tips for prospective students The advisers messed me up on my classes and I had to take another year to finish my degree. If you plan to transfer, check with the college your looking to transfer to to make sure your credits will transfer. Also, double check the classes your taking against what you need to graduate!
In three sentences They gave me the skills needed to continue my education. Some of the teachers were very inspirational. The advisers messed me up on my classes and I had to take another year to finish my degree.

Categories Comments What to do for fun There are a few activities done throughout the year
Food and Dining Great food and dining options
Dorm Life no dorms
Academic Rigor Not a tough school at all
Tips for prospective students Stay organized
In three sentences I think PHCC is a great college for people that need to advance their lives and can't travel to school. Not every college student is straight out of high school and can afford to go to a university. PHCC accommodates to different dynamics.

Categories Comments Bang for the buck I feel like I have most certainly received the most bang for my buck. The fees and tuition are reasonable. I don't purchase books through the college, though.
Food and Dining Unknown- distance learning student
Dorm Life Unknown- distance learning student. This college does not have dorms.
Academic Rigor Classes are sometimes challenging, but not too stressful.
In three sentences PHCC has a wide array of distance learning classes, which fit very well into busy schedules. I haven't had to set foot on campus, and this has helped tremendously as I also work full time.

Categories Comments What to do for fun Although these activities are not located on campus, bowling and eating out are truly the only things available in Martinsville.
Food and Dining This past year, there was a new cafeteria built which offers some options. For those that are health-conscious, myself included, salad is always available. In addition, there are other restaurants to survey.
Dorm Life Dorm Life is non-existent because housing options are not offered here. :) (Since the rating is required, I just selected one star).
Academic Rigor Obviously, depending on the courses taken and with which professors will determine the amount of work involved as well as the level of difficulty. Overall, I think that the work was somewhat challenging and moderately thought-provoking.
Tips for prospective students Arrive on time, be prepared for class, complete all assignments by deadlines, actively participate in class, and above all use your time wisely. Time management in college is one of the most important aspects of success in college in my opinion.
In three sentences I thoroughly enjoyed attending Patrick Henry Community College. It ultimately served as a stepping stone to transferring; the process was more gradual. I have learned that college is not just based on academics, but it is also a spiritual, social, and emotional journey, allowing one to grow.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus This is the beginning of my second year so I am still finding out all the traditions.
Bang for the buck Patrick Henry is an amazing school with a wonderful staff and great atmosphere around the whole place. Students can't help but feel at home when you finally make it back for classes the next day.
What to do for fun A well equipped slim-gym, weight room, huge basket ball court, volley ball area, tennis courts, soccer field, a dining area we all play cards and ping pong. Plays, dances, clubs, PH is a fun and great place to hang out all day long, with or without classes to attend that day.

Dorm Life Unsure, I live off campus. I have heard no complaints though.
