[quote=Anonymous]University of Miami is a school with some very good programs, and also some very mediocre ones. So I would say that fit for your DC would depend on the strength of the department to which your DC is applying. Many students are just there to party, and others are very bright. I am not as familiar with Pepperdine as a school, but I have encountered multiple Pepperdine grads in various circumstances. Every time, I have been shocked by a lack of critical thinking skills and a lack of ability to adapt to circumstances. They all now live in a subcategory in my head labeled "Pepperdine people." Granted, my sample size is relatively small and this is anecdotal. All the same, I consider it a red flag. Surely at least one should have been an exception? Even if your DC would rise to the top, they'd have to be prepared to be surrounded by a number of real duds ( and I don't just mean academically. An emphasis on religion is no proxy for character.)[/quote]
