[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC would tell you that the urban setting of the school is a large part of the appeal. DC enjoys getting off campus and having more interesting things to do than walk around a suburb. He went to the Guthrie twice and some other theatre venues, as well.

We have been happy with the quality of DCs education. They must be doing something right because so many end up settling in the Twin Cities after graduation.[/quote]

That's one way to look at it.  Another is that the degree isn't worth much outside MSP, so they have no choice but to settle there.

I have no idea which is accurate - just that there's not one that is necessarily correct.  [/quote]

I know MANY grads from Minnesota at both the undergrad and grad level, and all have been able to obtain quality employment around the country. Many eventually return to the Twin Cities because they loved their time there, the economy is booming, the quality of life is great (so long as you can handle the cold), and opportunities are abundant. heck, I know people with ZERO connection to the state of Minnesota that move there for all those reasons.

Heck, my family is making the move early next year! After 4 year in the south, DH was given the option to stay in our southern city, or lead the opening of a new division office in Minneapolis. We didn't even have to think about it. We're going. (we previously spent 13 years in DC, but going back to DC wasn't an option, sadly)[/quote]
