[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hope the school works out but I would give it 5 years to get established. The first few graduating classes are tricky. Colleges won’t know what to make of it as there will be no track record or baseline to assess students. Colleges know schools like Wilson, Walls, Banneker, McKinley Tech, DE, Coolidge, etc., for better or worse. They will have no idea what category to put McArthur in until a few years have passed. That worries me. [/quote] Counterpoint: My son goes to a college that was historically all-girls but went coed in 1969. In every poll of alumni the highest satisfaction -- and the biggest donations -- come from the students who entered in the fall of 1969. Sometimes it's exciting to be a part of something new.
