CEC needs lots of work to provide professional service like AUB’s

Overall
External program is a mess, all technical equipment in the room don’t working properly in an Interior Design class where presentations always take place, damaged screen colors showing only colors in black and white, while colors are essentials to show in interior design presentations , no pens, computer linked to projector doesn’t work properly and is extremely old with a poor faded screen resolution.
Finished the semester without being able to get the ID, you never call the person in charge and find her on her desk, always doing social coffee visits, never respond to students requests, very unprofessional, the only thing she makes sure to follow up on is getting the semester fees from students.
Really unacceptable and unprofessional.
Disappointed to see this happening at AUB!

Being in Beirut, and in AUB in particular is a great experience, on all levels. The main drawback is the great cost of living in that country.
