[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But by all means stay here and complain about the extremely rare chance of getting shot. [/quote] This comment is so off base...there was a shooting this week at MSU, where many DMV students attend. There was a shooting at UVA in October, There was a shooting last April at Edmund Burke School, in DC. Sadly, this is not so rare at all and you should talk to your kids. Mine think of shootings far more than you would think and are very aware that this is a real danger. Gun violence is not as prevalent in other countries, that's just a fact. And for some kids, it is a reason to look elsewhere for their studies. The OP didn't ask us to debate the merits of people's reasons, they asked what the reasons may be. For us it was in no order...adventure, broadening world view, excitement about certain academics, lower risk of gun violence, and cost was an added bonus. [/quote]
