STUDENT SATISFACTION SURVEY 2007 RESPONSES TO OPEN ...

154: i can say ..they are very helpful178: some advisors give different info than others.They do not always seem to be consistent,maybe they just do not know the correct answer. some advisors are very pleasant, someact like they don't want to be there. Please, the reason we ask for advise is because WEdon't know.179: I think the advisors could be more involved with students. Have more conversationqualities instead of just focusing all about telling the student what he/she needs andstarring at a piece of paper or the computer.181: Be more patient with the student. The lady that talked to me when I first came in lookedlike she was rushed.200: I am an honor student and we have our own advisor therefre i think i am priviliged and idont have any recommendations for my advisor201: So far, I didn't need advising services.203: More organized...there's too much time to wait in the office.205: you need to have more advisors212: It would be nice it the advisors were more informative and were all on the same pagewith the information they give students. I've been told several different things all fromdifferent advisors. Also the wait time to see an advisor is ridiculous. It's often well overan hour. Sometime even with an appointment.213: Everytime I went to an advisor for information about enrolling into the Nursing Programseveral years ago, I would always get a different answer about my pre-requisites. It wasfrustrating because I didn't know which one I needed to listen to.217: get a more profesional and more attentive personnel220: It seems that the advisors are guarded better than the CIA. You can't just call and makean appointment, and you can't just go in to see them without blocking out half a day'stime so you can stand in line forever to get in and ask one question.228: make it faster when you go to see them. they is a huge amount of students going to seedifferent advisors, and it can take a very long time229: The advisors seem tired or had a lack of interest in anything I said and the wait time tosee an advisor is absolutely ridiculous. Wait time should be decreased to 20 min not anhour or more. The advisors should be more friendly, due to the services I received thefirst time I entered the advising center I have not been there since.234: Stop giving students the run-around.237: Make sure that they know which classes a student needs to take and why. When I went toadvising at the beginning of semester they told that you no longer offered the degree thatI am seeking when you do actually offer it. I am scheduled to see an advisor a week fromMonday and I hope it goes better.239: I do not have a complaint with the advising department241: The wait time is ridiculous. I waited over 7 hours to speak to an advisor just to be given10mins of their time. And even if you have an appointment, the individual still has towait couple hours. That leads me to believe that we do not have enough advisors at theHCC campus to help the students and provide them with all information needed242: How about hire some advisors that actually care? Also, the waiting process isridiculous...5 hours to see an advisor that is snotty...thanks for nothing, and of courseHCC makes it manditory to see one....thanks again for a complete waste of time.248: more informationStudent Satisfaction Survey 2007 – Q15: Advising – Page 112
