[quote=Anonymous]I went to grad school at Mason and had the same frustration as a PP's kid with regard to getting registered for classes -- they would fill almost immediately (if registration started at noon, I'd be trying to log on at 11:59), and I'd have to go to the professor and ask them to let me in (which they always did). The atmosphere felt neither good nor bad to me -- the campus felt big and not pretty, but not ugly either. It did feel like a commuter school due to something about the vibe on campus ... lots of folks parking and walking to class and not a lot of people just hanging out -- but I was a grad student and this was 10 years ago, so your kid's milage may vary. Colleagues from my grad program were teaching English Comp, and that felt a little scary to me (some of them didn't seem remotely competent). But I'd definitely send my kid to Mason over paying for a comparably ranked private. Get that in-state tuition! [/quote]
