"Ball State is an amazing university and a place to work. they offer students the opportunity to gain real-world experience while attending school there. All Faculty and staff are really nice and really helpful."
"I am a graduate student for CICS. There is the perk of not paying full price for college and have a stipend but otherwise, no health insurance or other perks. I get to learn from professors and work closely with them to complete their research which is fulfilling. I would recommend this for anyone for CICS! Students not a GA are interested in joining as well, there is a community that the other students don't feel like they are a part of."
