[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Northwestern is very different than UVA. It’s a top top Tier 1 research university. It’s not the Harvard of the Midwest anymore, it’s actually the MIT of the Midwest. Its humanities program is very good, but UVA likely is the same or exceed. I was FA at NU and unless my child wanted to study one of the sciences or engineering there, I would have them go to UVA. If it’s sciences, I would have them go to NU with a strong plan of how to [b]engage their professors and get into an R&D lab[/b]. I work in technology and R&D now and the Stanford and MIT folks see my degree and know I’m not to be trifled with on the technical front, which is awesome. Maybe someday I can reach my full potential and sit on some tech or R&D heavy boards, and NU would play a role in that, but maybe not. But if your younger son/daughter wants to be a lawyer or finance person, send him/her to UVA.[/quote] This seems like very odd advice (vs doing something that leads to $$$s professionally). What end game are you proposing with this. [/quote]
