[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]JMU. Them kids, all they do is drink. [/quote]

Class of 96 here and I would love for my kids to go to JMU! I still have close college friendships and got into a great masters program. [/quote]

JMU is a fabulous school and I would be thrilled if any of my kids went there.  PP is mighty naive if she (or he) thinks college kids don't drink on [b]every[/b] campus.[/quote]

Could I interrupt this thread to ask what's fabulous about JMU - seriously.  DC likely would get in there, given what we've seen on Naviance, but we're having a hard time working up any enthusiasm for that prospect, other than the in-state tuition.   [/quote]

As a PP said, the students all seem very happy and content there.  We visited several in-state colleges and at none of them did the students seem as grounded, helpful, and down-to-earth as at JMU.  This was what sold my DC (a current sophomore there).  In addition, the education is fantastic; several of our neighbors have kids who are JMU grads and went onto fantastic master's programs.  The main part of campus, including the quad, is beautiful.  The food, according to DC and friends, is delicious and full of variety/ethnicity/etc.  And the faculty is top-notch; there such a feeling of support there.  We've been thrilled so far with what our DC has told us about the school.  Perhaps you should visit.[/quote]
