Clark State College, Springfield — Attraction in Springfield

DO NOT GO to the nursing school! But I know that students have no choice but to go and pour their money to this horrible nursing school. I BEG THAT SOMEBODY LOOK AT THE PICTURES OF THE GRADUATING CLASSES WHAT ARE THEIR LAST NAMES? WHY IS THE PASSING RATE OF THIS SCHOOL SO LOW? WHAT RACE ARE THEY? THIS AREA IN OHIO HAS AN AWFUL HISTORY OF SEGREGATION PERPETRATED BY TEACHERS AND NURSES.This area makes money off of the poor by purposely flunking them out of the educational system. Way to go Mary Cornell. Please somebody find a way to pull together a class action law suit. PLEASE SHUT DOWN THIS SCHOOL!!! You are forced to sign a waiver to hide their bias testing. Of course you are going to weed out people with confusing miss spelled, poor grammered tests. The final that you did not even write yourselves. How can you test on something you don’t know about? How can you waste a semester evading information then the test covers things that are not even on the book? What an easy way to make money. Testing on things that you do not even know if it’s on the exam? Way to pass students until it’s too late for them to withdraw. You pass only the few that are willing to suck up and stroke the teacher out of percentage points on these exams of nothing. Way to be bias and racist in dividing your class and have their grade depend on the answers on how ever you want. There is no real rhyme and reason. You just pass who ever walks up to you Dala Dewitt and if you like them you give those points out of these ridiculous quizzes. All of the teachers are part of this system. They are the daughters of Springfield Politicians. This is a huge political money train that feeds off the poor. Please somebody why is there no regulations on this? I can easily put together quizzes that do not make sense as a teacher/professor/adjunct then scan-tron in the good scores for the students I like. They say testing does not lie? Clark state lies and then they lower your score in order for a C average so they do not lose their nursing accreditation. Who can I call the news? There are no regulators the...

I came here from my high school CCP classes. I figured the college would be pretty good considering my experiences with the CCP classes weren't bad. Boy was I wrong, it has been nothing but nightmares since I started here. They do not tell you any important information and expect you to be able to find out everything for yourself. A majority of the teachers I have dealt with are near impossible to get in contact with, and one even took an entire week to respond to a question about an important essay, causing me to fail. The classes are beyond awful. I have a major interest in cybersecurity, however i'm now having to turn to something else because the cybersecurity program was using textbooks that were 8 years outdated which made assignments require complicated workarounds. Financial aid and the cashiers office ended up screwing me out of 400 bucks because of a massive error on their end they neglected to fix. I had an assignment that required me to set up 2 more semesters of classes that barely ended up getting finished because the main student advisor was suddenly quitting. Quite frankly I feel bad for the advisors, they get paid like trash, only 20 bucks an hour. If you can afford Sinclair, go to Sinclair. Do not...

I guess things have changed in 30 years, I got my nursing degree there. Instructors were wonderful. Support staff i.e. student affairs, student financial aid. My whole nursing degree was paid for. It's not all the school's fault, when it was time to try to get financial aid for my daughter. The answer was no way in hell. She's got student loans galore. And like one of the reviews I read, now, and in '86, they didn't make you take classes you didn't need. My daughter has more pre-reqs, than nursing classes. She got her LPN, then transition to RN, took almost 4 years and as much money. I didn't get it, an AD in nursing was for ppl that either could only afford a 2 year school, or didn't have the time. Now AD are taking 3, almost 4 years. We have waiting lists of 2-3 years to get into an AD program. Im disabled now, so don't nurse anymore, but asked my home health nurses, and hospital nurses, why the long wait? They said it wasn't worth the all the money you have to spend to get your MSN, or PhD, to become an instructor, when you can make 3-4X more money working the floor. There is something...
