What are your general comments?

"As expected they started late. Overall I was pleasantly surprised by their new facilities and very professional and progressive presentation. The facilities looked extremely nice and we even toured the Anatomy lab. Interacting with current students at lunch and during a student panel gave me a better feel for what the education there was like. Everyone seemed relaxed and laid-back, perhaps a little too much so. Lubbock isn't a great location for some people, but it could be a great place to go to school." Report Response
