[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After that post bashing the PA one, is it how people feel, that regional colleges are bad and sort of loser-ish? [/quote]

Of course not.  Really depends on the school.  Also, DCUM is not representative at ALL of how "people" feel.[/quote]

Seems like it may be in this case. [/quote]

That thread was about a school ranked 135 out of 178 regional colleges in the North. But there are some great regional schools in the North higher on the list, like RISD, Providence College, Loyola Maryland, St. Joe's, Marist, Ithaca, some of the SUNYs, etc.[/quote]

Those schools aren’t really regional schools. And have very different profiles. [/quote]

Actually, they are considered regional in USNWR.  Is this thread about non-flagship state schools, or truly regional colleges?  Those are two very different things.[/quote]

I think USNWR considers "regional colleges" to be those that don't have a wide range of graduate programs and are not national research powerhouses. They may have several master's programs, but they probably would not have a lot of doctoral programs. At least, that's my understanding.
