[quote=Anonymous]WashU is a great school in a lousy state. If it were located on the West Coast or the East Coast or near Chicago, it'd be one of the most desirable schools in the country. Beautiful campus. Excellent programs in almost every field. Smart, happy kids. Excellent job and grad school placement. But it's in Missouri, which is meth central. And it's next to St. Louis, a depressed and declining city in the middle of nowhere. That's the problem. Students today are much more lifestyle oriented. Fewer and fewer kids want to spend four years in grim places in New England or the Midwest. They'd rather go south or west or be in vibrant cities like Boston. While the immediate area around WashU is very nice, once you leave that bubble it's grim for 400 miles in every direction. [/quote]
