Schools you wouldnt attend

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I'm from Denver, wanted to go to Univ. of Colorado {my brother is a 3rd year there in the med school} and I am insanely appreciative that I ended up in a less toxic environment.
What's so "toxic" about U of C? I'm not applying there anyway because of the costs, but out of curiousity.
 
yeah the sentiments would be different and so would the application figures. I belive that unless we're going to be a nation of nothing but state authorized strictly pc institutions (which I know no one wants) then a private institution should be able to have a unique character to it. If Christian hospital systems want crosses on the wall so be it. If Loma Linda wants to avoid serving coffee in their cafeteria ok. If Catholic med schools and hospitals want to forgo offering abortion services ok. If that jewish med school (name escapes me) wants to have elevators that stop on each floor so the orthodox jews can avoid punching the buttons on the sabbath then fine. If a Muslim institution were to ban a society that promoted beer drinking then fine.

In order to be free, people have to have a certain freedom to be opposed to things.

If any institution liberal or conservative, crazy religous or militantly atheistic institutes policies that destroy their pool of willing students then they'll either change or die. The market is great in that respect.

Ah yes. The beautiful invisible hand of the market. 👍
 
I refuse to attend a school that doesn't accept me.
 
I got married in Eureka Springs! That whole Christ of the Ozarks thing is pretty lame, but other than that, I agree it's a really cool town. Sorta funny story -- I stayed in this motel out by the passion play stuff there, and their billboard read --

"Christ is lord, Enjoy our pool"

It was like they thought the two concepts tied together somehow. 🙂

Hmm, maybe Oklahoma can take on Mississippi.

EEEE don't you love it??

christ of the ozarks...is the funniest thing ever. the original draft was too big, so they had to either:
1. cut jesus off at the knee
2. put a beacon on his head to alert air traffic

so they cut him off at the knees. I LOVE THAT.

also. because i like you...you need to go to http://www.eurekaamish.com

eureka. amish. dot com.

now i'm kinda homesick.

OH OH! when i was in 2nd grade the boy that sat beside me in class got held back because he was attacked by a bunch of hornets or yellow jackets or something that had made their nests (do they live in nests?) in the tower in the pine mountain jamboree village. apparently he was allergic to the sting and he missed like 6 weeks. good times.
