Course recommendations
Unfortunately Dr. Ibrahim is no longer a teacher there but his Multicultural Education and Philosophy of Education were decisive in me staying another semester.

Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
Because the cost of living on campus was too much. They exploit students by requiring them to purchase a "Meal Plan" or the semester because there are no cooking facilities in the rooms. However, the meal plans are expensive considering the limited, over priced items included in the dining hall.

Personal comments
Good for meeting people and having a social life. However, if you are after value for money... on campus accommodation at Bishops Uinversity isn't the way to go.
