Bergen Community College (Newark, Paramus, Ridgewood: crime, credit, safe)

[pixieshmoo]

Has anyone gone there or is anyone currently enrolled there? I'm curious to know opinions about the campus. Is it large or small? Easy to find your way around? How about safety (especially at night)? Can a girl walk the campus to and from classes or her car at night and not have to worry about the kind of stuff that you hear about so often in the news? I know nothing is 100% but there are some places that are better/safer than others of course. What else can I learn about this campus?

It is located in Paramus

You do not get more "white suburban" than Paramus

It is perfectly safe

Took summer classes in 1989 & 90 for xfer credits.
Just attended the BCUA/BCC recycling event there last week too.

Medium campus- Easy to find your way around, and much SAFER than UMDNJ-NJIT-ECC-Rutgers Newark. Campus across Paramus Road from the county park and PCHS. Close to Ridgewood duck pond and downtown Ridgewood too. Area is NICE.

The town is very safe. The campus does have some minor crime issues (as most college campuses do) but not hing that should be a deterent from going there.
