[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So many people have book sense but no common sense. I plan to send my kid to a school that has people from all walks of life - one that mimics how the real-world workplace is. [/quote] JMU does not mimic "all walks of life" any better than an ivy, in fact ivies have more racial diversity, more gender parity, and more pell grant by %. College is an education first and foremost, not a life skills course (though basic laundry and cooking and working as a team develop at all). It is place to be intellectually stimulated and pushed to grow and learn, which can happen at either school but for the MOST intellectual top 1% type students itll happen better at the ivy than JMU. For other students JMU is the ideal place to grow academically. Many parents are able to see our kids are different, academically and personality, and we might steer one to an ivy and another to JMU.
