[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not kidding but I know someone whose son went there and she blames the atmosphere for turning him into a rebel flag flying, tobacco chewing drunk.[/quote]

That is so odd because it comes across to me as the Zoey 101 crowd not the tobacco chewing red neck crowd. [/quote]

I am PP whose daughter applied. We visited the school twice, talked to several students, and DD sat in on a class and I absolutely did NOT get the redneck vibe. More of an artsy vibe with a bit of preppy thrown in.[/quote]

I read that about 75% of the students come from out of state now.[/quote]

We visited the campus and attended a reception here for admitted students with our DD. It had a preppy, artsy, upscale vibe and the kids she interacted with seemed like they came from affluent backgrounds. Not much socioeconomic diversity.  Also no tobacco chewing or rebel flag flying types among the kids she saw. The President seems to be working hard to improve academics but it seems like there is much more to do.  Our DD ultimately chose a different school with a stronger academic reputation. [/quote]
