SWIC Southwestern Illinois College

Poor communication amongst several departments. The school wants to hear your opinion and what is wrong and what is right, however, in truth they only want to hear what is good and refuse to tend to what is wrong. how are you supposed to fix what is wrong if you don't hear both the good and bad? Getting someone to respond back to you can be exhausting. The dean and the president of the school, even when asking for a meeting, will not respond. How can you truly help educate when you do everything to avoid making the experience of going to school or coming back to school a good one? Students are afraid to speak up because the instructors have the ability to retaliate with their grade for their transcript. I have offered to present numerous people, present students and previous students to the school who would love to have a conversation, yet the school ignores that option. it's quite sad and concerning when this school has the ability to be phenomenal, yet the management is horrendous.nnEdited: In response to the school reaching out to me today. I have reached out to you all. Numerous times, numerous ways, numerous people, numerous surveys and nothing. I am not a millennial and I do not believe in posting stuff straight off the bat to social media without giving the person, business or institution the opportunity to have a conversation and fix it first. How are you supposed to fix something that you do not know about? This is the reason why I take an old school approach. I have stated an emails whom I have had or tried to have conversations with. Essentially you all have my name and number. You all know how to get ahold of me put some effort into it if you truly want to have a conversation.nnAs you can tell, I do not have a problem putting my name to this. I have nothing to hide. You all do. Jennifer

I never understood why community college was so hated on in HS. I absolutely love SWIC and have loved all of my professors, specifically for my HRO classes. also shout out to professor marlen, definitely would recommend if you’re taking BIO 157 or 158

Campus is actually relatively nice, the campus is large the parking is just a bit confusing. I considered going to this school a while ago but I never went because the employees, didn’t even know about the course I was about to take and didn’t even know about the program I was looking into or that the school had it and tried to force unnecessary classes on me so I never went but other than that I’ve heard it’s a decent start off college to give u feel of it before u go to a uni

Such an underrated school. I truly had a great education here & was privileged to have a plethora of educators guide me & expand my knowledge. I look forward to see SWIC's continued growth & ingenuity over time.

Professiinal staff. In and out in 10 minutes. Van is on Greenmiunt side of campus.
