There's plenty to enjoy about St. John's, but also a few things to be cognizant of…read more St. John's University is a major player in the liturgical, spiritual, and community life of Central Minnesota through the Benedictine Abbey/Monastery, the university and theological school, the prep school, Liturgical Press, the Abbey Church, liturgical reform, the Monastic Library, sports teams, St. John's Bible, and more. Johnnies, which its graduates are fond of calling themselves, are filled with pride for their school. I do not know of another campus that has quite the setting that St. John's has, with so many beautiful wooded acres, lakes, walking trails, an arboretum, and more. The football field has to be one of the most pleasant, situated as it is, in a valley surrounded by trees. It's truly a stunning place physically. The old architecture (red brick, historical buildings, The Great Hall) is pleasing to the eye; the new architecture (concrete) less so. There's much to attract students, visitors, and others to this place. Of course, nothing is as pristine as it seems. Unfortunately, the monastery has been marred by the large number of monks/priests who have sexually abused children. They continue to live and work on campus. The university says that they are under a kind of "house arrest" and that their activities are monitored, but I have seen accused monks/priests in St. Cloud shopping with young adult men. It continues to be a concern of many in the area.

I took a summer and took chemistry 101 and 102 at St Cloud state to save a year of chemistry at the…read moreU of MN. I studied very hard and got A's for both classes. Then I resumed my studies at the U of M. I struggled in Chemistry as I didn't have the appropriate background. It was tough. It was an eye opener for me. I took 2 years of Chemistry at the U of M. If you want a lessor degree that you can float through things then maybe this is the campus for you. But if you want to excel in what you do, maybe you should think about other schools. Just sayin..,,

This daycare is an absolute disaster from the top down. The director, Andrea, is openly rude,…read moredismissive, and talks to parents like they're stupid. They don't follow their own policies, don't complete required incident reports, and their "Honeycomb" system they brag about is basically useless since it isn't even utilized over half the day. They are severely short-staffed and it shows - constant chaos, kids hitting other kids with zero staff intervention and no sense of safety or structure. During enrollment, the staff member handling my intake told me to leave the weekly rate blank because they "needed county verification" before giving me any numbers. I signed the authorization assuming, logically, that they wouldn't charge anything until they knew what CCAP covered. Instead, they withdrew nearly $600 from my bank account without any notice, invoice, or explanation. No one had ever told me the rates, what I'd owe, or that they would charge me before receiving county information. Every interaction with Andrea after that was condescending and hostile. She talked over me repeatedly, refused to answer basic questions, and gave me the run-around for over two weeks. She even lied about not having my county paperwork... because I saw it sitting out in the open on the front desk, containing private information. I am in the Safe at Home program. That alone is unacceptable. When my son finally started, things got worse. He was inconsolable at drop-off and pickup, the classrooms were understaffed and chaotic, and kids were being hit with zero intervention. A staff member casually told me my son had been hit and dragged by his shirt, yet no incident report was ever completed. When I asked about it, Andrea gave me more attitude and zero answers. After repeated calls and no follow-up, I withdrew him. The ONLY competent person in this entire company was Emily at corporate, who fixed what the center repeatedly messed up. Do not trust this location with your child. The disorganization, lack of safety, unprofessional behavior and blatant mishandling of money & personal information are beyond unacceptable. This place is a liability. Run the other way.

They had a creative area to get your picture taken in a jail cell holding the crime you're in lockup for, written in chalk, LOL next time the Paramount asks me my crime, I'm pleading the 5th, Damn, Home Run Obssessions.... hope the show comes back so I can invoke the 5th next time I'm self-incriminating instead of those Home Run obsessions pickin' me off, run the line, jam packed show looked like a full count, AT least found a cool souvenir photo, snow coned. Judging by how hard it was to weave through the crowd during the 7th inning stretch I wasn't wrong that it was more fun solo, bringing Cash$ to buy a pretty woman a beer woulda been the key. Hopefully the man in black returns June, shes a babe, Big cigars, coffee , and a girl from North Country was all that was missin' but to be fair, the winds were hittin' heavy that day. ™
