Pros:
-Scenic course that plays through the Iowa Wesleyan Campus.
-There is a course layout. You will need a map, but finding a local that knows the course is better.
-Convenient for the Students and Faculty for playing in between classes or on a break.
-Nice Disc Nation Baskets
-Has a decent lighting from the street lights, that you could throw with a glow disc and be in decent shape.

Cons:
-Baskets are located in the common areas, so one has to throw across many walking paths, around buildings, and over parking lots. This course is subject to pedestrian traffic.
-Only 4 Baskets.
-No Teepads, only general unmarked tee areas (See Map).
-You will also throw over the road.
-When classes let out, it can be near impossible to want to throw a round here.

Other Thoughts:
They say that first impressions are everything. My first impression kept me from giving this course a second chance. I wrote it off because I didn't know the layout, and it only had 4 baskets. On this particular evening, two years later, one of my friends talked me into to playing here. He convinced me that knew the layout and that I should give it a second chance.
Well Dammit, I played here and had a good time! I immediately knew I was going to have to redeux this review. It was nice out, there was picturesque scenery, and some surprisingly good lines to throw. Much to my chagrin, I had fun!
I'm not saying it's a destination course for everyone. I wouldn't drive here for this course alone. I live here, so I can come back at my leisure. But if I was: a visitor in town; I was a student at IWU, or I just lived in town, I wouldn't mind playing a round here. It can be fun if you are with a group that knows where to go.
The key to playing this course, is to know the layout. You WILL need a map, (Found in the Links/Files Tab) but I'd personally recommend hooking up with a local that knows the course.
Still... It is what it is. A 9 hole course with 4 baskets. If you don't know where you are going, you will get frustrated. Just find a local and don't underestimate it. Keep in mind that you are on a school campus. Don't show up when classes let out. Students can and will flood the course area. Here is my finale: I enjoyed myself and I was wrong about this course.
