[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the parent whose kid got into UF but is going elsewhere, for the reasons I gave upthread. I gave several reasons to avoid UF, and FL universities, but what irritating about so much of the anti-FL animus on this thread is that it's inarticulate and apparently unreasoned. One commenter helpfully spelled out their reasons: too many online courses at UF, and too much TA dependence. Great, but when challenged, these apparent reasons seem to fall apart (as explained upthread). What's left? It looks like people just hate Florida and Floridians. Well, fine, go ahead and hate the nation's third largest state -- I'm not a fan of it either. But does that really help someone -- the OP, presumably -- wondering whether their kid should be interested in attending this particular university? Maybe start from the assumption that this person doesn't antecedently despise the state it's in?[/quote] DeSantis is that you?[/quote]
