[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BU, by far. Knew many kids at Tulane. Drunken, Southern frat hell. None of the students particularly distinguished [/quote]

Oh please do tell us how you came to know “many” kids at Tulane and how you came to this conclusion about a school you’ve most likely never seen. [/quote]

What? I'm from Texas. Many of my friends and classmates from my small private school went to Tulane. I went to UT and visited Tulane many times (best friend went there) to visit on weekends and some holidays. I met many of the kids there and had known a good handful from school. I even toured the campus during my tours. And yes, my original statement still stands. Going to undergrad in NOLA takes a special kind of kid. It takes party school to a different level, and I say that having done undergrad in ATX.

My friends at BU had a completely different experience. [/quote]

Thanks. Your experience from 1975 is interesting, but hardly relevant now. Unlike you, I actually know several students there now - they all love it and I would not describe any of them as partiers.

Again, your assumptions are still off. I'm not that old but I do grant you that I sound distinguished - particularly by comparison. I know kids there then and now - both from undergrad and law school. Can you believe it? I've known kids from there for a long period of time. Crazy given that I lived in Houston so long which is only hours from NOLA. Why is this so hard to grasp?

My original statement still stands. I wouldn't send my kids to Tulane given the amount of time that I've spent there. I would send my kids to BU. You, however, can do you - as the young people say.[/quote]

NP - I visited NOLA twice, and I would never send my kid to college there.  Ever.[/quote]

+100. The setting is no small matter. [/quote]
