[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She may also want to consider where she wants to end up after graduation. I'm from the DMV, went to VT for undergrad and IU for grad. I found significantly more west and midwest internship and job opportunities represented at IU then VT. Not a value statement, just be aware that future geography could be impacted by choice.[b] FWIW, I loved IU, Bloomington, and even though I only spent 3 years there have strong ties to it.

+100.  So nice to read that you liked Bloomington and IU.  I have two degrees from IUB.  I am originally  from Indiana but moved here to the DMV years ago.  My IU degrees have served me well in the DC area.   Bloomington/IU is a special place.  Warms my heart when people on DCUM [b]praise[/b] it rather than tearing it apart... [/quote]

Off topic, but how about their women's basketball team!!! We went to Bloomington this weekend and watched them beat the hell out of the Purdue team to clinch the Big 10 regular season title. Sold out Assembly Hall! [/quote]

+10000.   I know!   So wonderful that you actually went to the game.  I can only imagine the energy in Assembly Hall.  Good times!   :lol: [/quote]

My son plays in the pep band. It’s fantastic. [/quote]

Oh how wonderful!  He must have the best time.  I envy the fun the pep band and Marching 100 seemed to have.  Also, they made life long friends in those two groups! [/quote]

Yes, he would have been fine anyway, but the instant friend group really sped along his adapting to college life. Probably the only down side is that, because [b]he was spending so much time at band practice [/b]the first week or two on campus, he never got to know the other kids on his dorm floor all that well.

Is your DS a music student at Jacobs as well?   How fun![/quote]

Yup - pursuing a dual degree in composition through Jacobs and computer science through Luddy. He seems to be having a great freshman year, and we're awfully proud of him. [/quote]
