I haven't attended this school since 2017, unfortunately I had to withdraw from classes because I got really sick and found out I was pregnant in 2017. My pregnancy was considered high risk/ complicated so I had to go to the dr a lot. It's now 2024 and my child is 6, I decided to enroll back in school and complete my degree. I went to the financial aid office in June 2024 and waited 30 or more minutes to be told I needed an appointment! at that point , I just asked how I could do it and left. I got online a few times and seen I received a grant. And that it covered my cost. Today I got an email 1 week from my start date of school that I would be dropped from my classes , because they decided to withhold the grant due to me dropping my classes in 2017. I wish this would've been done earlier so I had time to prepare for classes out of pocket. So then I was told to file an appeal and tell them what happened, and I did! I got an email saying that I had to prove my pregnancy and so I did! , a new email says now I have to prove I was sick. So I've sent over so many medical documents and being vulnerable with all of my personal medical documents that I'm uncomfortable. Like it's one thing to ask for a birth certificate to prove pregnancy, and why my blood pressure was high , or my weight is insane and invasive! but does it matter if I was sick and how or why I was sick during a pregnancy ? A woman can be sick or fatigued during a pregnancy and that's not abnormal, however I'm uncomfortable with this situation being asked for information from 2017 I had to call the hospital bothering nurses and all about my personal high risk pregnancy. ... at this point I feel discouraged like I went through all of this enrollment and filling out a fafsa for nothing!! I may not be able to afford this and have to drop the classes again! This is an...

I have attended MCC and JCCC. My biggest complaint is Professor Loftin who is a science teacher for anatomy and zoology. HORRIBLE. This teacher expects the most ridiculous things when it comes to his class. There is hardly any homework, and if there is homework it's not worth a lot so if you get anything wrong there goes your grade. That's the same for the quizzes. He is also an extremely difficult grader for no reason. He is not clear in his instructions but will count you wrong for something you weren't even aware to do. Also, only three tests throughout the whole semester. The first test was 9 chapters. Those chapters were very diverse and quickly taught. When he teaches he just repeats what the textbook says and then during lab he just sits at his desk leaving us to figure it out ourselves. He argues with the textbook a lot. Also, if you ask a question he embarrasses you in front of the whole class. He forgets it's supposed to be an intro class. After the first quarter of the semester more than half my class dropped for all the same...

All my life throughout highscool made good grades always on time to class was bullied by professor Murphy based off being an African American male he was not allowing me help that my financial aid paid for he would brag about how he kicked his past students out and called campus police and also didn’t tell me at all that I was failing his class tell almost the end of the semester so I had no choice but to withdraw will not be attending Longview community college ever again and I don’t recommend taking History class with Mr Murphy he seems to have issues with people of color and doesn’t want to seem to see them succeed instead he brings up all his policies like not going to the bathroom during class and also not going to class before class even starts and he is cool with the other department staff with high power so they allow him to act this way and stated that people made reports to about him to the Dean and him and the dean are buddy buddy with each other so they hold the...
