Don't let that hold you back. I don't think every class has a group project, plus this is a graduate project, the undergrads are not required to do this. Besides, even though it is highly, highly annoying, the fact that they are using our work to present a solution to a town in need of help not only adds a sense of purpose, but is something that could even be added to a resume, never waste an opportunity to pad the ol' CV
.
Besides, group work I think is largely at the discretion of the instructor. Some instructors think this is a good idea, most don't seem to bother with it. I had group work I had to do at Ashford and Southwestern too. In all instances it was annoying but I do not for a second regret attending either school. Bellevue is actually smarter about it than most in that they give you a real life problem to solve rather than a simple case study.
