[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Jmu is a great school and we have c suite people at my Fortune 500 people who went there. I’d be happy if that was one of the schools my kid chose. [/quote]

What makes it great? [/quote]

DP.  Smart, nice students, excellent professors, wide range of majors, beautiful setting, lots of activities for all kinds of interests, good post-grad outcomes.  [/quote]

What’s your objective criteria that defines “smart” kids.  The stats aren’t high and most kids apply TO.[/quote]

You realize the vast majority of students at ALL schools (that have TO policies) go test optional these days - right?  Not really the gotcha you'd like it to be.  [/quote]

Sure...the schools that accept perfectly average kids.  The vast majority of colleges are for average kids which is fine.

So, that means JMU is filled with average kids.  Stating a fact isn't a gotcha...it's just a fact.[/quote]

DP. A lot of perfectly average kids at JMU, sure. But as UVA/VT/W&M become increasingly more difficult to get into for even the higher stats kids, plenty of them who want to stay in state choose JMU. They coexist, and it makes the whole vibe of the place a little more relaxed. [/quote]

The PP is the usual JMU-basher who has a major axe to grind when it comes to the school.  At this point, she’s just a sour grapes troll.[/quote]
