[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UMD is, indeed, a great school for many subjects, including engineering and computer science. But it has a kind of homely campus in a dumpy town and it's very close to where many of the posters on DCUM live. I think most kids would prefer to go to a more idyllic campus in a cute college town a little removed from their HS. It's also the case that UVA has had a great reputation for a State school for decades, while UMD's rise in the rankings and prominence started relatively recently. Still, even if they had the exact same prestige, I think people would be vastly more excited to go to UMD if it were in Annapolis or someplace else cooler than College Park. Most kids I know who end up there love it though, regardless of how excited there were about it in HS.[/quote] I would rather be some place where I could jump on the metro and be in DC than Charlottesville..[/quote]
