The nutrition major is among the best in Massachusetts. In the pre-engineering major, students study engineering for two years and have guaranteed admission to WPI and UMass Lowell for their junior and senior years. Bio, Biochem, and Nutrition students have a strong community. There is a Pre-Health Advising Club led by Dr. Shelli Waetzig for students on the pre-PA and MD tracks. The nursing major is a two-year program for people who have an associate's degree in nursing and want a bachelor's degree. According to LinkedIn, the nursing program's graduates work at the Massachusetts General Hospital, Brigham and Women's Hospital, and the Boston Children's Hospital.  The rest of the departments are not good. The salary for computer science graduates at Framingham State is pretty low at ~$50k. Even the professors do not send their kids here. Socially, there is nothing to do because there is a strict prohibition of alcohol even for students who are 21 and over and because most students live with their parents.

Helen takes time to ask everyone at the beginning what our questions are going into the class and what we hope to learn, and at the end of the class does a whole Q&A session. She prints of recipes, shopping guides, and includes links to her YouTube videos on the recipes, she even included a bonus recipe for us just because she thinks it's delicious. Helen is worth every penny, can't recommend her enough. It was a great date night!
