Emory? You put Druid Hills in the same category as "dangerous". That is funny.

Right. Because places like USC and the University of Chicago, Penn and Temple, Johns Hopkins, Emory, NY schools, GWU, etc. are in so much safer environments.


GWU is quite safe. But I agree some of these are in dodgy areas.

Tulane has been on a tear upgrading buildings and dorms. School looks amazing.

The person waving the flag is a young American adult who is part of the Catholic ministry at Tulane. He grew up in Northern Virginia and went to school in MD.

I know this young man - if anyone wants to support his ministry, I can provide his contact info.

Catholics can reach out to this ministry on campus.
