I push as many of my kids towards CSN as I can. My niece LOVED it there...she was lost at UNLV with the huge classes, etc. She had gone to high school up here in the Moapa Valley, so she had a serious case of culture shock. She ended up taking a year off and then went back to CSN for her Associate's. She would have never graduated from UNLV without that transition from CSN. 
Yeah, the kids can be tough, but I've noticed a serious shift in the last couple of years. The incoming Freshmen last year and this year are really nice! Polite, holding doors open, saying "Good Morning" and (gasp!) smiling! A vast majority of the boys are even wearing their pants where they belong!! And I'm sure you've experienced this...the toughest kids are the ones who need us the most. Nothing like that "A-HA!" moment!
