My son agreed to bridge through Tri County Tech this past year. As an educator and former professor at another in-state institution of higher education, I must say how disappointed I have been regarding his experience at Tri County this year. He has had teachers who will not return his emails when questions arise, keep office hours so that students can have face to face meetings, speak with students to address concerns before or after classes, nor have relevant experience in courses to which they are assigned to teach. Grades are not diligently posted so students have little knowledge about their current status regarding GPA. Overall, I have been gravely disappointed in the experience provided at Tri-County. In hindsight, I wish he would have stayed in our local town and attended classes at another institution of higher learning. Vision truly is 20/20 as I look back.....
