Aunuwyn has a good point. I am also a second year security student at the Korbel school. Some students were told that they had to seek courses outside the Korbel school due to a lack of space. While Current Korbel Student may have recieved all the classes he wanted, not everyone does. I myself could not take all the classes I wanted in my first quarter, and there were far fewer students last year. I wasn't asked to take classes in a different program, but the problem is still the same: the Korbel school has a serious problem with getting its students into Korbel classes. Part of the problem is the Korbel policy of admitting large amounts of students and limiting class sizes to a max of 20 students. An additional example: last Spring quarter the school "overcompensated" by creating more classes than they needed. The school then decided to drop every class that was less than half full, even if it was only by one student. I had THREE graduate level classes cancelled on me. Given the enormous amount of money I pay to attend the Korbel school (and the increasing debt), I should be able to take the classes that I want. Some teachers understand the problem and will overload their classes or oversee an independent study. But not all professors feel that way.
Speaking as a student, the Korbel school is a good school. I enjoy my classes and I believe I am getting a good education. But lets be realistic: it is not all smiles and sunshine.
