Pros:
First of all I'm the course designer but I will try to be as unbiased as possible. This 9 hole course was 100% designed with students in mind. A round can be played individually in 30 minutes or 45 mins in a group, perfect if students have an hour between classes. Holes are short but not gimme birdies. There is plenty of OB and tricky basket placements to give even experience players a bit of a challenge.
Cons:
Cons:
- only 9 holes
- natural tees and only one tee per hole
- 2 longish walks between holes
- no signage (yet)

Other Thoughts:
I will give a brief detail of each hole. All holes are par 3
Hole 1 - The course starts in the "quad" which is the center of campus and right beside the student center where students can check out discs. 216 ft. OB side walks and over.
Hole 2 - 350 ft Funnest hole on the course. Wide open extreme downhill hole. Very fun watching your disc bounce on the air.
Hole 3 - 232 ft Deceptively uphill hole with a protective mando to right guardian tree in front.
Hole 4 - 202 ft Short hole but plays much longer. Several large trees guard the green. Basket is set down in a circular brick landscaping.
Hole 5 - 148 ft Nothing special here except a great Ace run. Students will probably empty their bag just to see. Pavement and across is OB.
Hole 6 - 185 ft Short but tricky hole. Sidewalk and left of sidewalk down the left side of fairway is OB. Parking lot to the right is OB. Basket itself sits on a slope that goes away from the throw with a tree guarding the front.
Hole 7 - 303 ft Most difficult hole on the course. Sidewalk and to the right of sidewalk is OB. Pavement in front of building OB. Very large trees guarding entire left side of fairway. Basket sits on the shelf of a slope. I don't see this hole ever being birdied.
Hole 8 - 247 ft Uphill blind tee shot. Several large trees all around the green.
Hole 9 - 171 ft Very short throw but basically an island green. Parking lot is OB. Sidewalk and right of sidewalk is OB.
Final thoughts: Again this course is the perfect course for a quick round for the students. It also makes a great putter only round to work on form for more experienced players.
