University of North Georgia Rankings by Salary Score

While providing a means by which to obtain the needed state-mandated certification, etc., instruction dealt more with social problems, not practical knowledge needed to effectively teach and manage a classroom. Subject matter presented was slanted to the extreme liberal point of view. It is as if the education professors intent is to influence the viewpoints of future educators, not helping future educators achieve successful career experiences. Given the cost of tuition and fees upon additional fees, this... Read More was not a good value. If interested in becoming a teacher, my advice is to attend a different university.

Please do not major in any of the Art programs here at UNG, especially the Graphic Design, Animation, and Visual art bachelor's program. The programs are lackluster and the majority of the classes can be done online for free. Speaking of which, I've taken three graphic design courses and find it ironic that the professors are using adobe and other related free videos online for the curriculum. You're literally paying over 1K for a class that you can teach yourself online for FREE. Also, the art professors... Read More offer little to no knowledge of how to actually be good and excel as an artist. The majority of my professor only graded for participating and turning in the work/projects. They do not grade on quality or provide constructive feedback. I had an incident where an Art professor stated the following "I really don't care how well the students do, as long as they're getting somewhat of the basics down, I guess that's good enough. If they refuse to listen to my way of doing things, that's not my problem" For one, there is no one-way standard way of teaching. Some students prefer alternative teaching styles in order to understand the criteria. You can't just assume a student will learn your old, outdated techniques and expect to learn everything offhand. Speaking in regards to the Gainesville campus, it's really a community college culture disguised as a university. Lots of commuters and there isn't really any culture or party scenes. The buildings are bland and outdated and the isn't a lot of clubs or greek culture to attend here. I recommend going to GSU or UGA if you're majoring in an Arts degree. The art program at UNG is a joke.
