The thing I like about midland middle college is there always a parking spot. Most of my teacher is nice and great teachers. They are the most understanding teacher and always help you when you need help. I also like our library. It's a very nice place to sit and read and always quite. I also, like the computer lab at the academic center. They give you two hours' time to sit there and do your assignment as much as you want and if you need more times you can ask more. I also, like the book center. The worker was very nice and whenever I go get the book they help me find the book that I can't find by myself. They have a very clean hall, bathroom, and a clean classroom. All the students there are nice and respect for each other. I have never been in the food center but I heard that most of the food is great. I am a night-time student and I never have to worry about my safety there. school resources very helpful for me. There nothing to change for me.

It is an excellent experience and you can learn so much being on this campus. The professors are so knowledgable and helpful. The only thing that the school earns bad marks for is its unhelpful financial aid department.

I really liked that the school was very focused on getting students looking towards their future, and they offered college classes for free. I did not like that they sometimes had trouble following through on their promising plans and ideas.
