class was pretty bad. it was mostly tables and figures copied from a other source. they were unreadable for the most part. didnt learn how to calculate anything. didnt learn about different bedding or backfill materials. didnt discuss pvc pipe or hdpe at all.

Wow, an email from a real person and not a pre-written response.  That is very refreshing.  I will be sure to recommend this site to others in my field!
