Campus Resources: The library in this campus is not bad, they have a lot of books, mostly all of them are helpful. The computers are in good conditions sometimes i have a problem with one but its not an issue because they have plenty to choose from.
Overall Experience: West Hills in Coalinga is not a bad collge yet its not the best one either. Some memebers of the faculty really sepnd time explaining all the different types of questions you have. They help you whenever you need help. What makes my school unique, i must say, is the attention each proffesor gives to you, they spend time explaining when you have any questions.
Academic Experience: I feel that West Hills College- Coalinga is a great college. I did not intend on attending WHC but I feel that it has been a blessing. The professors are usually easy to get ahold of, the curriculum is challenging in the most positive way, and over all it is a great school.
Academic Experience: I feel that being a communication major at West Hills College-Coalinga is not a totally difficult task. I feel that the instructors that I have had, did in fact have a great deal of influence on me in regards to becoming a COM major. Because I have only been exposed to a brief amount of courses, I need to further my education to actually be able to feel confident in Communications. The workload from the two years of experience I have had, has been manageable. Once I transfer in the Fall I can only imagine it getting tougher.*(3)
