Can you call Lehigh and lay out the facts and see if you can shake them down for $$$? I am all for following your bliss, but at full pay you need to think about ROI.

Do you think this girl is really considering the full range of both college’s characteristics? I doubt it. Hard to fully get a sense of what a college is like until you actually attend. You mostly just make a decision on gut feel and general vibes


Well, she’s certainly considering more than just a ranking number next to a school’s name in some half-a$$ed list.

This is wrong for STEM and Engineering. Cornell has standout STEM and Engineering programs. Highly respected all over the world.

I think the difference isn’t that significant engineering.


Comparing Lehigh to…Duke? Weird.


You have serious issues.


It’s just not relevant to this thread. 🤷🏽

Ummm. Duke over Cornell? That’s a no-brainer.

Lehigh, hands down. I went there and it’s amazing. Everyone I know who went there is doing amazing in their various careers.
