[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was recruited for athletics at 6 ACC schools and 6 Big 10 schools. Maryland was attractive athletically and had a competitive program academically which fit me. College Park is kind of blah and it just wasn’t the size. Michigan for example was a much better college town (I did not go there, with regrets). One thing that bothered me - and should not have given its status as the flagship in Maryland - is its low endowment - incredibly thin for a school its size. Professors complain about it, rightly pointing out that billions have gone to the money pit that is Baltimore as opposed to the University, and indeed for a school a dozen miles from the Capitol it should be the equal or better to Michigan or UCLA. Not overall bad, but a blah factor (and the costs everywhere were equal for me). [/quote] Equal or better than UCLA because of its location? That makes no sense whatsoever. [/quote]
