[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tulane is a huge party school which has catered to the Mid-Atlantic area.  It has a huge NY/NJ/PA/MD Jewish population as well.  They are doing what Northeastern did a few years back.

That said, we visited and it is a complete sh*thole of a school.  Inside and out.  Old and Older.  At least Northeastern put money into new programs, buildings, and campus.  I just don't get the draw of Tulane except that it is in NOLA and the weather is warmer in the winter.

That said, they must know that people love to shout about their kids getting into harder schools, so paying big money to look like a hard school on paper, is good enough for some families. [/quote]

I heard the honors dorm was nice[/quote]

I lived in New Orleans and am not sure when PP visited or what buildings they saw, but there is a ton of new construction at Tulane including dorms, academic buildings, and common spaces, and a lot of renovations to the historic buildings. The idea that the campus is a shithole is laughable. It is absolutely gorgeous.  The school puts a ton of money into modernizing and maintaining the facilities.[/quote]

Yes +1000. Didn’t Tulane under go a major overhaul after Katrina- new missions statement, dropping some programs and really focusing on community service? Tulane will always have a party vibe because it’s in New Orleans-Laissez les bon temps rouler.

I am older and remember Duke before coach K. [/quote]
