Georgetown v Brown

[Anonymous]

Gtown if they’re the “straight and narrow path” type, Brown if they’re more creative. Also Brown if they’re interested in public policy as it relates to public health.

What’s your kid think about rats?

My kid thinks they exist in any city situation, and that it is not a factor in deciding colleges, would they be lucky enough to be admitted If you are not a city kid, that is fine, but it has nothing to do with the quality of education at any city school.

They are NOT part of every urban situation. But if you think they are fine, you will enjoy Georgetown.

Let me guess, your next claim is that you have actually been to every institution - and verified? All of my and my (rather large) extended family's degrees, are from urban colleges, and each of those campuses had rats. Most of their (and my) schools are T20. So, IMHO and IME, you can not make any correlation between quality of college and rats. You are just being absurd.

If you are afraid of rats, stay out of all major cities. Better yet, stay home and keep reading outdated social media. How is that working for you?

If kid chooses Brown, watch out for the rabbits! They are everywhere. My kid swears they are plotting something.

Oh no! The Brown kids should start a hyped up social media to deter the idiots! LOL.

DC was deciding between the two, down to the wire, a few years ago. Also live close to Georgetown. Chose Brown. Have heard on several occasions something to the likes of 'so glad I chose Brown over Georgetown'. Different area of study though.

Do you have any idea just how many rats Brown has?

For this interest - gov't etc. It would have to be Georgetown, hands down for the proximity to politics in DC and everything else they offer academically.

And I'd choose Brown over every other subject at Georgetown.

First time that I have ever read this. Can you elaborate ?

I know that in the early 1980s the Ivy League wanted Northwestern (said no due to the travel distance for athletic competitions), Army (USMA at West Point) and Navy (USNA at Annapolis), but--obviously--it never came to fruition.

Georgetown as an Ivy makes sense although Georgetown is light on research compared to the Ivy League and to Big Ten Conference schools.

Have you seen Brown’s research levels?

Georgetown because of major, internship opportunities, career options.

Very healthy mindset. OP, this is a great point….With these two choices, your kid will be fine with either. It seems that most kids end up loving where they end up. I’m Sure if this kid had ended up at Georgetown, they would be saying ‘so glad I chose GU.’

We have them where we live in Arlington. Anywhere in an urban area you will find them. Restaurants and construction and density. Totally disgusted by the sheer number I saw on a street in NYC recently.

I agree with this. But if they really want to move away from home, go to Brown. They can live at home in the summers and get great DC internships.

GU and GW scoop up most of the internships in DC because they have them year round.
