Not a honest place

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.

Pros

- Beautiful campus - Friendly staff

Cons

- Virtually no opportunities to move up. Jobs are offered internally to candidates (across departments) without advertising to the internal campus. - Want enrollment to increase with a decrease in staff and no plans to fill empty staff spots
