[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]NEU feels sleazy to me. [/b]I can't put my finger on exactly why it feels that way. We got that feeling when we visited. The students were obsessed with the co-op and making money. That's not what college should be about.[/quote]
Really? I don't spend anytime thinking about it. My kids aren't attending nor applying so doesn't really concern me. [/quote]

I have to agree. The multiple posts about a school that OP does not attend, and was not admitted to, is perplexing. There are many schools (multiple) my DCs (multiple) felt strongly negative about, when we visited *in person*, but we don't feel the need to come here to rant about it regularly (using VPNs, at that). Someone is deeply troubled and amiss.  The proper answer is to move on and live your life, OP.

We have dear friends who currently attend the school, who would certainly tell us what they did not like, if anything.  They love their experiences at Northeastern, and are so glad they chose it.  I am happy for them that they found a place that fits them, and wish them well. It would not occur to me to come to this board and spout my insecurities. They are speaking from personal experience, however - not rejection, like OP. I personally would not get my information from an anonymous message board, in most cases, particularly pertaining to colleges.

What it is with this VPN comment that the NEU booster is always mentioning?!? Why would anyone bother to do that?    No one is ranting about your beloved NEU.  OP came with a simple question and several parents has posted with their personal and not always positive experience. [/quote]
