[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a friend whose kid got sucked in by social media and went to a big fun-sounding Southern college. Hated it. Transferred out [/quote]

Interesting. Off the top of my head, we know a handful kids who at Florida, UGA, Clemson, Alabama, Auburn, Ole Miss, SMU, Miami, LSU and Rice who seem to love it. My theory is a large part of their happiness is simply due to the sunny weather during the school year.[/quote]

And the easy classes, who are you kidding?   [/quote]

No, who are you kidding. Undergrad engineering, BBA in business, political science and pre-med is the same everywhere. These kids are studying hard, having fun, meeting spouses, and building networks to mount successful careers in the booming South and Mountain West.[/quote]

That’s not true.  Those degrees are not the same everywhere.  I could glide through Univ of Alabama with these undergrad majors.   I could not do the same at Harvard.

Most Northern girls couldn’t stomach the whole sorority thing where the females have to post videos of themselves forced to go on social media, chit chat while applying makeup and then point out their clothing, the label on the clothes, show off their jewelry and name the brand. Real deep.   [/quote]
