Because it is a full day of information from sun up to sun down, it was a lot to have to stay in one spot and be attentive and yet it was doable. She makes sure to keep you engaged and participating, she gives plenty of breaks, and taught the course speedily so we were even able to end ahead of schedule! And the price for the course was the lowest I could find! I dreaded it but I am pleased to say I got through it and now I'm on the other side of my continuing education feeling confident with my refreshed knowledge of the business, AND time to spare. Don't hesitate. Just go book!

Lodge is old and in dire need of modernization. Plenty of nearby hotels.

Last year I took the "Tile, Grout, and Thinset" class with the DIY Academy. It was a fantastic…read moreexperience and it gave me the confidence to fix up one of the smaller bathrooms at my house. With my master bathroom repair-and-renovation looming, I wanted to expand my knowledge base more, and Rich and the DIY Academy were once again there to help. Instead of a class, I participated in the volunteering arm of the program and assisted in the demolition and subfloor preparation of an actual master bathroom. It was a whole day of cutting, grinding, smashing, and trashing, but it certainly affirmed the old maxim, "The best way to learn is to do." A lot of times it seems educators in any field see fit to show and tell, but not so here. Rich was always there to supervise and provide support, but it was apparent that he was dedicated to having the student learn by action and not by observation. His methods provided a great blend of experience-based learning and direct instruction. Being able to take part in each process necessary to strip a room down to its bones eliminated two obstacles that scare off most homeowners from attempting to do their own renovation work. First, it removed the mystery of a home's construction: every layer of material holding the old bathroom together could be seen and held. Second, it provided some level of expectation: now having seen how the various surfaces and materials are held together, I know my own bathroom's construction will not be terribly far off. This all works together to establish a sort of baseline muscle memory for the work to be done in the future. This was another great experience with DIY Academy and I hope more such opportunities arise in the future!

I have rented a locker for $20 where I have kept my tools for the past 8 months and a few months ago I realized my tools have started rusting, despite never being brought near water or humidity. I came to the conclusion after one of my friends leaving his hat in the classroom and asking me to keep it in my locker tell tomorrow, the locker was leaking... I took the hat out next day with wet spots all over... all my tools have spot rust everywhere. I have cleaned it in this photo and came back a few weeks later to them being rusted again. Proving it is the locker. So then I decide to ask the school to replace my tools, because they haven't left the school and have only been in this locker (which is leaking). I talk to Corey Hughes the school president (the worst man alive) to try and get a conclusion. He basically tells me what I have brought to him is bullshit and refuses to replace my tools that have been damaged due to improper maintenance of the school. What do I do? It is obvious to me that it has been damaged due to the school but obviously no one's just gonna take my word or even photos for proof?

Bowie State University is a gem of a school right in the heart of Prince George's County. If you…read moreare considering college, pay them a visit to see it for yourself. I have come to events on campus many times over the years, but my most recent visit was eye-catching. Significant resources have been poured into the campus as new buildings and grand refurbishments and renovations continue apace. This should be the norm for all HBCUs around the country. It is a testament to the value the state places on its universities, although the level of investment pales in comparison to College Park. The quad is the envy of other schools, some with higher endowments, tuitions, and budgets. It is big enough that it feels like a university but still small enough to feel like home. My favorite feature/building/concept is the Entrepreneurship Living Learning Community (ELLC). Home to students who want to be entrepreneurs, here they live (brand new dorms), eat, and learn (classrooms and other spaces). There is a business and creative synergy that is self evident all throughout the space. I took a cohort of school age mentees for a tour and lunch at BSU. They were over-the-moon about the Student Center Dining Hall's food and modern decor. The food choices included fresh vegetables and fruits, custom made salads and bowls, hand crafted pizza, grilled to order items, and high quality rotating items from a self-serve bar. The seating area had huge windows where the sunlight shone through. The academic and recreational buildings were top tier. But what struck me most was the energy, passion, and intelligence of the students and faculty. They treated my mentees like little brothers coming to campus to learn from older siblings. The students seemed supportive of each other. D9 organizations got along too., but the Brothers of Alpha Phi Alpha, Inc. always raise the bar. Bowie State University should be proud of the work they continue to do and the student needs they continue to meet. Five stars easily earned!

This is an honest review so please read it in its entirety. This is a grimy hands on no kidding…read moreget dirty school. Love it! The teachers are laid back subject matter experts. Pro or cons depending on your point of view: - School has a dress code but the teachers don't enforce it. Lots of students running around with headphones on and using their cell phones during class time. - Need to smoke? Just step outside and when you are done, just throw your butt on the ground, no worries. - When the students return from lunch, you can often get a contact high from all the pot smokers. In my opinion this is a great school, and if you have discipline you can learn a lot. You get what you put in for sure. With that said, it would also be easy to screw off and graduate with nothing but debt also. That's my two cents, take it for what it's worth.
