[quote=Anonymous][quote=Jennae]Mine aren't old enough for college yet, [b]but my view is that you're going to get a good education at just about any college[/b]. The quality of teaching may be lower at community colleges and junior colleges, but even that I'm not sure of. If your child is going to a university, they should be plenty challenged and have opportunities to learn from people that do work and research in their field. Whether that's at Harvard or not doesn't much matter to me outside of the name recognition. [/quote] Oy what would make someone say such a thing. How many colleges did you attend? Do you work in higher ed? You really think low performing atmosphere, peer group and low watt professors at backwater colleges have no impact of your child?[/quote]
