Jakayla - 11/28/2024

Hey! My name is Jakayla Bouie. I currently attend Hinds Community College in Raymond, MS to major in real estate. My college experience has been an incredible journey filled with learning, growth, and memorable moments. I was fortunate to have nice teachers who were not only knowledgeable but also genuinely cared about their students' success. Beyond the classroom, I've had the opportunity to meet lots of new people from diverse backgrounds. The friendships I've formed here are some of the most meaningful relationships in my life. My education has played a significant role in my college experience. I take both my education and career as an opportunity for me to be a good person in the future. Overall, my college experience has been a perfect blend of academic rigor, personal growth, and social engagement. The journey of taking prerequisites for real estate has been particularly rewarding, as it has provided a solid foundation for my future career. I wouldn't trade this experience for anything. Overall, the college is a five star rating and is a good fit for me and others as well.

I think that Hinds CC is an amazing place to start your journey. I spent two years here and would gladly recommend it to others. All of the professors that I had contact with were amazing, and always willing to help. I have since moved on but am proud to say i attended Hinds CC.

I love Hinds, it's a really good place to start your career journey and they have an excellent nursing program which I was accepted into. The only thing I wish that was a little different, was the help and relief of financial problems.

  12. What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?

    Hinds Community College is a well run organization. The strongest negative that can be said is that a student can only miss three classes during a semester no matter the reason. Once the third class is missed, a student is dropped from the class. Unfortunate events such as sickness, death, work, etc. should sometimes be an excused absence for students who otherwise consistently demonstrate a good school "work ethic". Life happens.

    I have not really been too frustrated yet. But the one thing that I know about that gets a little frustrating is parking spots on campus. There is not nearly enough for every one that goes to Hinds Community College. Other than that, everyone is very helpful.
