Pros

Excellent hard working faculty who are committed to their students. Caring staff but with excessive hiring from within, many staff members lack the appropriate skills or experience to do their job well.

Cons

Administration lack of classroom experience and lack of resources provided to faculty to do their job well (classroom facilities lacking, low salaries, and poor benefits). The excessive hiring of administrators with salaries over $130,000 a year in the last two years without experience in higher education, thus continued issues with operational processes.

Pros

Good vacation for graduate faculty

Cons

Too many administrators making big salaries and Pontificating. Constantly talking about how university is broke- so this is why you get minimal raise, this is why your retirement matching goes down, this is why you cannot get the supplies that you need because the budget was cut and given to another department. If you are a graduate faculty, you are well aware that the money that you pull in for the university is used to keep the undergraduate components afloat. A few years ago, they asked people to leave voluntarily as a way to stay afloat. They are dishonest with students in terms of housing, food, plans, and fees. The main campus in Wingate, North Carolina, while attractive, is in an ugly, desolate town. The campus is unsafe and frequently on lockdown because of criminals from the town who come on campus grounds.
