Liz- the "why the change of heart?" question was in reference to the link posted where you said:
"As a Colorado kid, I was first excited to hear of this school. Now, not so much.
I will not be applying to, or considering RVU now or in the future.
Too, bad though. I would have loved to stay home."
That sounds about right for you...
Jarrett- you're awesome. I'm sorry your personality doesn't come across as well through posts, but you're right on in what you're saying.
I'm also an RVU student and unfortunately we have been under attack from every possible angle- including our own Denver post. The only facts we can share are that WE DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON!!! I don't know why everyone wants to get on here and act like we have the facts- we don't. We're struggling to get through these last couple weeks while stressing out about unforeseen faculty/Board issues. Very recently we were given a very vague explanation of what's going on and we're scheduled to meet again tomorrow to hopefully get some questions answered.
We still have an extremely committed faculty and so far our education for the next year doesn't look to be affected. As far as the other politics at our school- we obviously want to keep the medical community updated as we receive more information to retain what little dignity we have left and hopefully work to gain some respect from our future colleagues. I don't anticipate any of us dropping out of RVU or attempting to transfer, so please guys, don't make us feel worse about a situation we don't have much control over and still see hope for. The reason more students from RVU are just now posting is because a fellow student just alerted us to the misleading info others have posted.
