Subject: UMD campus ranked 3rd in the Big 10
as a big10 alum, I'm happy UMD is in the big10. I think it is a good fit.
Ugly campus though. PSU is not a bucolic or nice campus. I think Northwestern is the best campus out of the big 10.

Thank you. I realize you were being snarky, but I didn't know that this was linked to the "Big Ten" (since, as I said, I am Canadian and didn't know what that was). Having another search term to pair it with was helpful. For those of you who don't know, CIC stands for Committee on Institutional Cooperation.

What is the CIC? Google pulls up random things, but that might be because I am in Canada and that is the acronym of our Immigration service.

I would consider letting my son go there if he wanted a big school experience. Now, if this is a point about sports, I don't care. Most of the actual students and faculty at UMD do not care about its sports' ranking or what conference it is in. It has very little to do with the experience of being a student there.
It's about both. As a member of the Big 10, you should be excited about the CIC and the amazing cooperation with the largest research schools in the country, including Michigan, Hopkins etc. Of course as you probably know , the combined UMD/UMD med-law is a top 5 research institution with over 1 billion per year in funding.

Too bad UMD has the most national championships in the ACC. The most innovative and influential alumni in the ACC. The most Nobel/Pulitzer / academy award/ Emmy award /fields medal alumni in the ACC ...
... And we can't be high class with lacrosse murder, heavy drinking (wahoo), ... Lacrosse stripper party, racists (devils), or no national championships but yearly bloody atrocities (gobblers)
... Or illiterate graduates..tarheels.

Maryland is not a Big Ten or Eleven or Thirteen or whatever they are school. It will always be a second-tier ACC school known for rioting after regular season wins.
Yep. So low class.

The ACC boosters are making themselves look foolish. You really don't want to go there. Trust me.
