I was here to visit on Open House day as my prospective student considers their higher education options for next year. In-state and reciprocity state tuition costs are a great value and even out of state tuition is worth it when you compare it to places like the University of California out of state tuition costs. In addition to being located in Minneapolis proper with downtown venues and amenities, Minnesota is home to many Fortune 500 companies (think 3M, Target, General Mills, Medtronic, United Health, etc.) and this is their prime recruiting real estate when looking for new talent. I learned that many employees from these corporations are adjunct professors and teach here so the students learn from true experts and not theoretical academicians that have never held a real job. (Have you ever heard the saying, "Those that can't do, teach"? LOL) The buildings and classrooms are modern and techno-savvy. There are great study lounges and coffee shops within easy reach. One other thing I learned about the undergrad program is that there is an international study requirement (meaning every student MUST go overseas at some point for study in order to graduate). International Requirement? Yes please. Let see, if my student chooses to go here, they will be surrounded by the latest and greatest teachers, technology, comforts AND get to go overseas? Where the hell do I sign up?!? I'd like to take their place! When I went to school, there were nuns with rulers, cinderblock buildings, chalkboards, overhead transparencies and cafeteria slop. I'm now envisioning my student reading about hedge funds while sipping espresso in Italy on my dime! For God's sake, I want to come back in another life! In all seriousness, the U of M is a stellar university and the Carlson School within it is a prized gem that MN should be very proud of.

SCPA has received a lot of honors and awards, and is recognized as one of the top in the state, for good reason!

As a student who went here for 5+ years, this place is a joke. Teachers and staff will have their…read moreown favorite students and treat them better than others. For example, out-of-uniform days. There were specific rules as to what was allowed and what was not. Most "popular" students would not follow the rules, and also some regular students. I would only ever see those regular students in the office and never the popular students. That is not the only thing. A lot of the students are racist, mostly towards the Hispanic and Black students. You would occasionally hear the n-word or "beaner" in the hallways. In some classes teachers would favor specific students. Some teachers would talk often to these popular kids during class and would be helping them out more than other students. Sometimes, those students would convince teachers to change their groups so they would be with their friends, therefore making the original students feel bad. I will not write about everything that happened at Hill-Murray, so this will be the last one. A student was wrongfully ganged up on by four other students. This happened in Mr. Faust's class, where he was not in the classroom when he was supposed to be. According to the students who were in his class during that hour, he would normally not be in the room when students got back from lunch. (Classrooms are not to be left unattended with students in them without a teacher.) When I saw the video of this fight, the four had blocked off their entrance to leave, the student was spat on by one of the four students, and started to defend themselves from those students. Two out of four of those students were hitting that one student. It kept going for a while until a bystander student finally stopped them from touching that student, still no teacher in sight. As stated by bystander students, one out of four of said students was expelled, and the student who was beaten withdrew from Hill-Murray. Also, the student who was expelled had previously threatened the student and followed her way before the fight took place and had two suspensions. When I first came here, I expected so much considering how much people pay for their children to go here, and I was so excited to be a pioneer. When I graduated, I realized that place is not where I would EVER send my child. If you don't have a status, you do not matter to them. If you are a person of color, you will be called names and be stereotyped. Please, if you care and want your child to be safe and loved, don't make the same mistake my parents did and send them here.

I would strongly advise you to a school that actually cares about people and its students not just dollars! I would give this school and our experience her ZERO stars if I could! How do they feel justified in charging for a semester that my kid wasn't even there? there were zero expenditures for him on behalf of the professors, time, food nor dorm space and yet we are being charged for what? Exodus 22:25 ESV "If you lend money to any of my people with you who is poor, you shall not be like a moneylender to him, and you shall not exact interest from him. Deuteronomy 23:19 ESV "You shall not charge interest on loans to your brother, interest on money, interest on food, interest on anything that is lent for interest. Leviticus 25:35-37 "If your brother becomes poor and cannot maintain himself with you, you shall support him as though he were a stranger and a sojourner, and he shall live with you. Take no interest from him or profit, but fear your God, that your brother may live beside you. You shall not lend him your money at interest, nor give him your food for profit.
