[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the point of this thread? Is this just advertising for GMU? seems odd. and a little creepy.[/quote]

Not to mention disingenuous, and likely one poster in multiple personas answering his or her own questions...

Is GMU even ranked in the top 100 for CS? Of course not.

GMU has its purpose, and is a fine school--but let's not get carried away. It's logical competition is VCU not UVA...[/quote]

+1[/quote]

GMU is ranked 67 in CS.[/quote]

First, nimrod, that's a Grad School ranking. Second, for an MS that is not very impressive at all.[/quote]

Sorry I just can't believe any ranking that outs GMU ahead of Harvard, Princeton, Penn, Berkeley, COlumbIs, Cornell.  Should I continue?

G[b]MU is a commuter school that does provide a solid education, [/b]but it's not in same league as UVA or many other schools.  [/quote]

How old are you? When was the last time you were on campus.  It it is a commuter school then, pray tell, where are the 35,000 parking places?  And why are 13,000 kids in dorms and construction never ends at GMU.  Please go visit before you post again.  GMU has undergone explosive growth (via funds from the legislature) to make it the TECH school providing the Dulles corrider with valued employees.  Those same students start during the summer with those companies.  Every student graduating from computer science or game design has many options (in addition to going on for a masters' or Ph.D.).  One recent graduate is now making seven figures  (real seven figures, don't snark about decimal points) as  mason computer science graduate.  There are also two campuses now that officer computer science and serious game design degrees.  The original schools are in Fairfax - the expansions are out in Manassas.  My DD, a rising sophomore already has a paid internship working ona game design contract out of the Manassas campus.  SHe willhave daily interaction with the company, get paid get credit, and learn more about computer science all at once.  [/quote]
