[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All are good. She is entitled to have a preference and she has no need to defend it. However, if I were the parent, I'd consider that very few decide to turn down JMU in favor of VCU or CNU[/quote]

Yes, I absolutely agree with you and I'm not going to push her.  Ultimately, it is her decision.  She also told me that JMU is a party school and that it is mostly for average students.  I totally disagree.  I think that the school has gotten a lot more competitive in recent years.  She has very good stats, but they weren't good enough for VT or UVA.  I feel that JMU is the best option.  [/quote]

JMU is no more a "party school" than UVA or VT.  It's a big, fun school - yes.  It also has tons to offer academically and socially.  It's only 18% Greek, so that doesn't dominate.  I have two kids who went there and loved it.  They both had excellent internships, study abroad, intramural sports, academic organizations, and made wonderful friends.  Highly recommend.  (And the students there are above average - lots of smart, interesting people.)[/quote]
