Reviews

I loved going to Evergreen. I went to community college and a 4-year university and none of them were really “exceptional”. I didn’t really feel like I was a part of the school. I transferred to Evergreen and loved how different it was. I took classes that no “normal” college would teach. It is a liberal arts school, so of course it’s different than other colleges but I loved that. I actually felt like my teachers cared about me and wanted me to learn. My writing abilities and critical thinking improved greatly. All my teachers pushed me to think more and try to understand the world around me. I love Evergreen!

I had a great experience in the Master of Environmental Studies program. Evergreen is a great place to delve really deeply into whatever topic you're really passionate about. I have heard good things about the other Graduate programs as well. (I agree with another poster who noted many of the one star reviews are probably from people who've never stepped foot on the campus). For those intrigued by the school's alternative model-- Don't believe everything you hear, please check out the campus for yourself and talk to some students!

Why anyone would even consider this place is beyond comprehension. If you are a parent, read and understand what the children and admins do to people who actually have the gall to believe in real science. I suppose if you want your kid to be a yoga instructing, racist, postmodernist drain on society, then by all means, send in your checks. George and his cohorts are more than happy to take every penny.

I graduated from Evergreen, I'm an average guy who returned to school to learn how to be a more thoughtful, skillful, and intelligent individual, and find meaningful work after. Suffice to say I've found all of these things. Evergreen is a place where students legitimately own their educations- they design their degree paths themselves. Our alums have gone on to run non-profits, found humanitarian organizations, work as surgeons, statesmen and Oscar-winning filmmakers. My personal opinion is that if you can't cobble together something for yourself at Evergreen— if you can't do the work at an institution designed to humanize education- then there may be little hope until you reassess your priorities. As for the employability of a tesc grad, I currently teach composition at a state university in Virginia, and have successfully worked for state and local organizations.

I see a great number of folks who dont like our college leaving reviews. I'd say about 90% have never set foot on campus. 

I study forestry here, and have received an education that would challenge, if not best, UW. Your professors, many of whom possess a terminal degree, will know you personally. 
The facilities here are amazing, we have everything from a blacksmithing studio to a scanning electron microscope. All are available for any student to use. 

Are there some odd folks here? You betcha. There are odd folks everywhere. Dont believe the trolls though, free speech is alive and well here. I've been a registered Republican since I could vote and have never had an unpleasant experience because of it. 

I implore anyone who is considering the school to come and check it out! Tour our labs, theaters, lecture halls, and forests; draw your own conclusions
