JMU is what it is, lots of people around here love it. But please find me a single list of "Big Ten" (whatever that means) state schools that lists JMU ...

Apparently you have no idea what the Big Ten is. Let me enlighten you.

The Big Ten includes a number of State Schools. The newest members are Maryland and Rutgers. Long time members include Purdue, Ohio State, Wisconsin, Iowa and others.

And yes, the poster is correct. James Madison is as selective as many of the schools just mentioned, despite your vitriolic nonsense.

OMG, you are using the Big Ten Conference as a measuring stick for how selective a college is and you're mentioning JMU in the same sentence as the Big Ten Conference colleges. I certainly know what the Big Ten Conference colleges are and again ask you to cite a single source that would claim JMU in their rank. Hilarious.

What are you blathering on about. The statement still stands. James Madison is as selective as many of the schools just mentioned, despite your vitriolic nonsense.

Actually this is what was said: "...But please find me a single list of "Big Ten" (whatever that means)..."

Anyone who doesn't know what the Big Ten is has lost all credibility.

As for the claim VT/JMU ranks higher than a number of Big Ten state schools, apparently that statement is very true. According to Kiplinger, both JMU and VT rank in the top 30 of all Puiblic Schools:

Both large state schools with strong sports heritage. Both well regarded throughout the south.

I've been scouring college boards for a while and never before have I seen: "X University is great! At least as good as some of the Big Ten athletic conference schools." But leave it to a DCUM JMU booster. Go Dukes!

OMG, the original list on this thread contained a number of Big Ten schools. Perhaps reading comprehension is needed on DCUM.

Why do you always respond twice? And even dig up old threads to post your link again? Do you have anything useful to contribute here?
