379: get better instructors420: offer more courses at the plant city campus421: Add a section for nursing students to partner or work for local hospitals toincrease training and local opertunities.467: I would improve the wait time for financial aid, student services, andcounseling.... very unorganized.....484: NO OPINION488: Make more classes available at all the campuses instead of just ybor nddalemabury.490: n/a515: The class quality and cultural experiences that HCC offers are severly stunted. Ithink HCC needs to create the strong elements of the particular campuses (such asarts at Ybor, and Sports at Dale Mabry) in all of the campuses567: The biggest problem I had was with the administration and the course catalog.There was an error with my registration and therefore my VA benefits weremessed up. I needed to do a administrative drop. It took four months for it to gothrough. Then when taking courses over the summer the courses in the catalog,the courses in the online catalog did not match which led to a whole array ofconfusion and havoc when trying to schedule classes. Better planning and a morecompetent staff is needed at HCC.644: I absolutly hate the way they changed homework for this semester, I know we arethe "ginny pigs" but I have never been in a math class where they strickly gradedyour homework for right or wrong. If you cant make mistakes on your homeworkwithout your grade being deducted, then where can you make mistakes in tryingto learn your math problems!697: I would not change anything.781: i feel as if i am teaching myself. when i go to class i feel as if the informationprovided is not as accurate as it should be. i understand i need to read my bookshowever i feel that i should be explained the information presented better. if iwould have known that i would have to provide my own education than i wouldhave applied to an on-line r.n. program.814: nothing at this time867: Cut loose some of the staff who clearly no longer care about the job that they doand the responsibilities they have as educators.880: nothing to my knowledge903: WI FI on ENTIRE campus, not to sound mean, but McDonald's has better WiFithan the Plant City campus.916: I love HCC943: Offer more classes at each campus. It's extremely difficult when you live in PlantCity to have to drive all the way to Dale Mabry just because the class isn't offeredat the Plant City campus. I would also like to see student housing offered at theYbor campus.966: Make classes more avaiable for people who neeed to take night classes.1061: Specific to the nursing program, HCC desperately needs instructors who haveexperience in TEACHING not just in nursing. We get looks of pity at the hospitalStudent Satisfaction Survey 2007 – Q74: Publications and Communications – Page 491
