[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Community college is also a great value, but for most people its not the college experience they want for their dc. GMU is basically community college.[/quote]

Correct. Comparing GMU to VT is embarrassing from a social standpoint. [/quote]

I disagree - and no affiliation with either GMU or VT. [/quote]

Oh really? How did Mason’s football team do this year?[/quote]

Well it had to be better than VTs, that’s not something to hang your hat on this year. [/quote]

At least kids at VT had tailgates and games to attend this fall. What do kids do on Saturdays if there is no football? Go to quidditch club or just sit around? Seriously [/quote]

Seriously? Thousands of students attend college and never go to a football or any other game. I’ve tailgated at Penn State. I can take it or leave it. I went to college in a city, so we went into the city on the weekends.[/quote]

Seriously? You can do boring adult things your entire life. A Penn State game for an 18-22 year old is like a religious experience. If you meet an alum you’ll get it. You probably are not as loyal as PSU alums are well beyond college. [/quote]

My son went to VT (graduated this year) and loves football, but is really more into pro football vs. college. He went to a couple VT games a season but it is certainly not a defining part of his college experience. He seemed to do the same things at college as my other kid at a not-sports-centric LAC -- played on a rec soccer team, do some club activities, hang out with friends, PT job.

If you think there is nothing to do on a Saturday other than go to a football game, what do you think they do after football season?[/quote]

Basketball, duh [/quote]

You must be a boring person.[/quote]
