What's about smart, young, fun and good looking kids having a great time and getting a good education at a big state school that playing big time football?

“The only real college experience”

🙄

Yes, that's what I said. Real. Not nerdy and egg headed.

Who hurt you?

LOL. Very funny.

Nobody! I'm just saying, why can't we all be honest?

You first. You can’t admit that different people value different things than you do and that there is no one “real” college experience.

I'm not talking about what people "value." Implicit in your question is that you can't get a good education at a big, fun school. Which is bullshit.

Wrong.

First, I didn’t ask you a question.

Second, I didn’t say you can’t get a good education at a larger school with great football. I didn’t say

Third, yes, you are talking about what people value, what they consider “real.” You cannot admit that some people just don’t want big, Greek schools with big college sports.

And as I said, I got a great education at a school with big college football.

I can admit that they THINK they don't want them, or their parents don't want them. Sure. But they're wrong.

They’re not all getting a good education.

You can say that about any school. Just as you can also say that it is very possible to get a good education at EVERY big football school. Plus have lot of fun and be cute.

Yes but generally, people who have the priority of “having a lot of fun and being cute” are the least likely to be getting any meaningful education.

Big football is appealing

Greek is not. And it’s the kids that are making those numbers drop like a stone. Not the parents.

There's nothing wrong with having fun and being cute.

There is something wrong with adults who need validation by claiming that their's is the "only real" version of an experience, college or otherwise

[Anonymous]

I think I’d be ok being a grumpy not-fun student at an LAC or smaller university that doesn’t have a football team. The women at the Seven Sisters colleges seem to have good college experiences without football. Emory is another places that comes to mind.

Who wouldn't want to be a smart, good looking and outgoing Greek guy or girl at an SEC, Big Ten or ACC school? What a time and place to be young.

lol nice joke. College is not about sports. A top school that also has some sports, sure(Stanford, Duke, Notre Dame), but picking predominantly for sports and greek is a waste of funds.

+1 mine has fun at an ivy, and they dress up cute for parties, but fun is not the main goal.

I went to an Ivy which DCUM seems obsessed with, so no. Of course not. There are a lot of different types of college experiences, and all of them are REAL.

I can guarantee you my son would’ve been miserable at a Big 10 / SEC school with football and a large Greek presence. I agree that you can get a great education as one, but I’m thankful that there is a college for everyone, as not everyone shares the same likes and dislikes and idea of a good time.

My child is living his best life at a nerdy engineering school where D&D is likely to outrank watching sporting events as a good time for the majority of the student body.
