[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would TJ grad attend UVA for CS? [/quote]

What’s wrong with doing that?[/quote]

UVA CS sucks.[/quote]

For an undergrad its fine. You can’t beat the in-state cost. As long as it has strong recruiting, which I am sure it will[/quote]

Very mature comment above.  It might not be Carnegie-Mellon/MIT/Cal/Stanford quality but personally I don't think a good CS degree is even a needed ingredient to be a good programmer. Some of my best coders have been self taught.   I got a CS degree at UVa and have been coding for 30 years.  I did get an minor in MIS at the Comm School which I think was just as useful when it came to real world jobs.  Plus, they have the new Data Science school.  [/quote]

Computer Science does not mean coding. Saying so proves the point the PP made about UVA CS. Besides, TJ grads are embarrassed to attend UVA especially for STEM when there are plenty of better opportunities w/ merit scholarships.[/quote]
