Open Quote This school used to have potential but has fallen mightily the last few years. Constant administration changes have left faculty and students with no direction. Overemphasis on sports over academics, in terms of funding and value from its administration, gives its students false sense of value. There is little to no academic and college counseling which leads to students remaining in the area and never finding a better life. The school balloons its own pride and self-importance but students and faculty have no real academic competitiveness outside of the tiny southern Indiana bubble it finds itself (with ever-falling real estate values).
