[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to UMD which might get more respect now but was not a good school in 1990. I loved it and I’m a proud alum. I don’t care what others think about my college choice. I’m bright but I didn’t work hard in HS - I was definitely lazy. If I had worked harder, no doubt I could have gone to a school with more prestige but it never occurs to me to feel less than friends/relatives/aquaintances who went to Ivy or similar schools…but some of my career choices leave me with regret. [/quote] I went there around the same time. Engineering and journalism were top colleges. They weren’t the only excellent programs. One of my freshman year friends transferred to HYSP. Another attended Harvard law. My professors were highly accomplished, but maybe UMD had not figured out how to game the rankings like other schools. ;) [/quote]
