[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only thing holding GMU back is the quality of its teaching staff. Most undergrads dont care about research - they go to learn coding, accounting, business etc.

For business, I know GMU hires random folks who teach part time at GMU. Just does not inspire confidence.

Its location/size is not an issues - most colleges in Europe, Asia are similar in that regards.[/quote]

But not in the United States. GMU is a commuter college that the Kock brothers have essentially purchased. [/quote]
? If NoVa is full of liberals, and supposedly, most of the students are from NoVa area, how does that make GMU conservative?[/quote]

Are most students from NOVA?  I haven’t seen the numbers. If they are, then I’d imagine the NOVA students trend MC/LMC or nontraditional students. UMC students who can afford to leave NOVA by and large do. The UMC kids I know had GMU as the best STEM option or crushed and burned at their initial college (in two cases had mental health issues) and transferred to live at or near home and get more structure and more supports.

IDK but some posters seem to think that GMU is mostly a commuter school, so the students would have to live in NoVa.
