[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, there are researchers at UMD who have done some exciting things. However, as a school for local kids it has little appeal. If you've gone to a Whitman or Churchill, it feels like a step down. If you've gone to a Quince Orchard, it feels like high school, only bigger. If you've gone to Einstein, it's almost your back yard. Ergo, close to zero buzz. [/quote] You make a very interesting point. A BS/BA today is pretty much expected and not given much credit beyond checking the box. In a lot if ways, it's the new HS Diploma. What sets you apart is your graduate degree. Under that premise, UMD should be considered great since in a lot if ways for local kids, it's an extension of HS. [/quote]
