[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]James Madison!!  Awesome school. [/quote]
How is it that every college thread brings out the JMU cheerleader?  Even when the thread relates to colleges out of the state of Virginia?  It seems the JMU booster feels she has something to prove or excuse. [/quote]

There's no JMU booster.  OP slammed it and asked for it.  OP's not current with what's going on with the VA system and how difficult it has become for in-staters to get into all of the VA schools.  Go read the wikipedia page on GMU, for example.  And GMU's grads have jobs when they graduate (average starting $65K a year) and William & Mary is the worst (straight out of the mouth of the GMU President and confirmed by the board of visitors).  GMU offers programs like engineering that can get them jobs right out of college, especially in the Dulles Tech. Corridor.  I don't know as much about JMU but in-state Virginians are really overlooking something great if they blow off the VA schools without reading up on them - seriously go read that wikipedia page - and visit the campuses.  Or try UVA or William & Mary - they have a helluva better reputation than the Univ. of Spoiled Children. [/quote]
