Renton Campus - Teachers are NOT professional, rude, verbally abusive and insulting to the students, lie to the students just to win (even when the class all knows it is a lie), no questions or discussions on issues (write your questions on the board, if we get to it...never have time to answer questions), incorrect information to class, poor educational information, just pushing through without explanation on information given, saw someone written up by a teacher that stated she left the class early, we all knew she had not left early at all but that teacher got her way and wrote her up anyway, change in the Student Handbook rules verbally even when it states it clearly in the book one way and then it is now what they say instead, need I say more. The fear, they do not have their accreditation yet and we are half way through the program. Looking at the other places, colleges and vo-tech schools that have accreditation. PIMA needs the accreditation so we can work in our field and take the National Boards for the career. So sorry I did not listen to others, and what I had read. Feel that I made a huge mistake...please look close before you jump and regret it as I did.
My lawyer states I have a case to bring them up on. I am disabled and have been harassed about it and that I could not possible be in this field being disabled. In the beginning it was great that I was, now that I rarely walk with a cane or show signs of disability I am picked on if I use my cane on hard and painful days. They knew up front, did not lie to get in, and was with cane right from the beginning. I knew I would get better but forever I will on bad days will use a cane, They knew, I did not lie, was upfront now I am a problem. The ACLU and the Department of Human Rights are so interested in my case and have asked to pursuit my case so others never have to put up with what I have had to. Oh, did I mention that they wanted letters from my Doctors, so I took up valuable time from other patients just to get a letter. He was so surprised as the field is one that works with those that are disabled. I am so sad but move on with my life and do what is best for myself and know I will hurt so many once I follow through.
For your sake, look elsewhere for a better education, longer time in school will be well worth it plus a much better education for yourself and your clients.
