I AGREEEE!! And I say this as a current student at the
University of Hawaii's College of Education's PBCSE (Post
Baccalaureate in SEcondary Education) program! I've had so many
problems with the administrative system at UH this semester it's
not even funny! Plus, in the same amoutn of time (18 months) to
get just my teaching license and certification for secondary --
which is not even my first choice I've always wanted elementary -
- I can get a Masters and teaching license in the same amount of
time at Phoenix, and it's in Elementary! Maybe I'm a little
biased after my experiences at UH as a graduate (I had no
problems there as an undergrad lol) but even one of
my "advisers" recommmended that I email him a message with
everything I complained to him about, because he said a lot of
students come in to talk to him, but they never put it down on
paper so he has evidence. Anyway, it really is up to you!
Although, with the Phoenix schedule of class one night a week, I
will have time to pursue working during the day as an
Educational Assistant, which I"m really looking forward to!
