  • The students and the professors. Hoosiers are the best at making you feel welcome of any place I have ever been.

  • Fantastic venue with excellent staff! They only lost a star because it was so hot in the auditorium and communication wasn't adequate when an actor had to be replaced. No one quite knew what was happening and they brought the lights full up so audience members left for intermission when it was supposed to be a quick turn over. Just a bit confusing, which is understandable. They really needed to adjust the temperature though considering the house was full.
  • The Hospital care and staff are very good, quick, efficient, friendly...the pharmacy falls short EVERY time, months of delayed or unfilled prescriptions, not very friendly there either a complete fall off from the rest of the Hospital and staff, get your prescriptions anywhere else.
