My school was a generally all-inclusive, caring environment that was equally educationally enriching as it was culturally.
Fredonia State University AACSB Thoughts
Anonymous rated 5 out of 5 stars
What really worked at my University was the good balance between group work and real life case scenarios. This really helped in not only developing the skills I lacked as an individual but also prepare me for the real world when it came to post grad. What didn't work was the lack of internship support the school had at the time.
