Cite?


Reducing tuition. Low enrollment. Small endowment.

Gimmicks to attract students.

You might be confused. You think making it more affordable to attract more students is a sign of trouble? Your cite makes Roanoke look innovative which is the opposite of financial issues.

It's hard to say what exactly would be the "opposite" of financial issues. My first thought was having of exorbitant wealth. "Innovative" did not come to mind. In any case, Roanoke, like many private colleges of its size and stature, has faced declining enrolment and needs students badly. Not unique to Roanoke and not something that can be denied.

Alumni rabidly support each other. Beautiful campus. Great and approachable professors. Lots of kids from NY, NJ, and CT.

Yep. Seems like there’s some censorship


A lot of claims that folks can’t provide evidence to support.

Do people need a claim and evidence sheet every time they post here now? Sheesh, it’s becoming Reddit.


You can't be serious. You think you can throw out a claim with no citation and people will just... believe you? That's not how it works. You make the claim, you provide the evidence.

Yes. Don’t make a claim you can’t support.

Then most of this forum should be deleted


Good, misinformation is dangerous.
