[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. I wouldn't pay to send my kids to JMU or CNU.[/quote]

Nor would I.  Neither provide a high quality education.[/quote]

You people are unbelievable.  And I'm so glad you won't be sending your kids to these schools.  Though it'll be fun to see where you actually do wind up sending them.  Karma, you know.   :lol: [/quote]

Seriously.  These posters must have young kids.  My oldest is in 9th grade and suddenly parents are singing a different tune.  Nothing like finding out that your "gifted" 3rd grade  kid couldn't hack 8th grade Algebra 1 Intensified to make you reassess state schools.  I'm finding the backtracking hilarious...[/quote]

I am not sure what is not to be believed. I have spent the better part of two decades in academia, teaching at universities up and down the East Coast, and approving MSCHE accreditations. The majority of students at schools like JMU and CNU do not get involved in research, grant proposals or contribution to journals. It is as if their purpose of attending is simply to get a piece of paper to get a job. [/quote]
