[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]George Mason, (Univ, not law school) is ranked no. 1 up and coming university and yesterday was ranked no. 14 "most underrated" university in America.  It's an amazing place and sending lots of graduates to good-paying jobs in the Dulles corridor.  http://www.businessinsider.com/most-underrated-colleges-in-america-2015-1#16-tie-george-mason-university-34.  The law school has come out of nowhere and is becoming a real force, especially when combined with Mason's econ. department.[/quote]

Not that Mason is bad, but you can find some obscure ranking to tell you whatever you want to read. [/quote]

I'm not sure why people on this Board are intent on disparaging GMU at every opportunity. There are some amazing things going on there. 
I know people who go there/have went there and they are all top notch. The facilities are great and constantly being improved. Programs are highly rated. I'd love it if my kid went there (their honors program is fantastic) but they don't have the sport DC plays and wants to try for in college. [/quote]

Watch out, people will start calling you a GMU booster...they disparage everything.  If they have issues with schools like Cornell, Dartmouth, Duke, Vandy and Georgetown than they certainly believe GMU is only a step above a CC.  That is obviously wrong but how this place works.[/quote]

true-this applies to almost all the "other" schools

I've already been told before my child even applies what a crap school Radford is. But for what my daughter wants to do, it has everything she wants. I cannot seem to find any other school that can replicate the Radford curriculum for her field of study, and trust me, I have looked far and wide.

Bash it all you want, weirdos. I will be thrilled to send my kid to Radford if that is where she chooses.[/quote]

As you should be.[/quote]
