Some classes have challenged me, but in many others, I have to challenge myself to grow. In some of the introductory courses, it would not take much effort to receive an A in the class. Doing the minimum will hurt you in the long run though.

The teachers at this institution have an uncanny amount of knowledge. It's surprising how in depth and passionate many are about their studies.
