我的朋友要来美国工作1-2年,目前有两个选择:vanderbilt和University of
Virginia
她准备让12岁的孩子一起来,从学校教育质量以及其它方面(如:生活便利程度, 气
候)考虑,上面哪个地方比较合适呢?还是差不多? |

UVA是公立里的前5,地方离着大城市要近很多,生活上比方便一些。是我就选择UVA了

p******e 发帖数: 516 | 10 我也是这么跟朋友说的。另外,我离UVA还近点儿,万一朋友有事需要帮助,还方便些。

s*********r 发帖数: 4210 | 11 法学院的话,还是请有关方面的专家来比一下. 生活上面,vanderbilt就在Nashville的
市里, 条件要比UVA好. UVA要有相同的条件就要跑到Richmond去了. 待上一,二年的换
区别不大, 如果是国内大城市来的,那里都是小地方. |
B******1 发帖数: 9094 | 12 UVA is really safe. It promotes something called an "honor code" which
requires each student to be honest and reliable. Rumor has it that if you
leave your computer in the library, it will not disappear in 5 minutes. If
you do not have enough cash when calling a taxi, the taxi driver will allow
you to take a rain check and pay him later. No interest or penalty.
UVA's law school is much better than that of Vanderbilt. If you friend is an
LLM student, it is better to attend UVA which has a very small and
prestigious LLM program (40 some students).
UVA is one of the options for James if he attends college. |

x****i 发帖数: 400 | 14 Do you want James go to UVA? I thought you should have a much bigger goal.
UVA for James is a piece of cake, not worth your such input of time and
money.

c*******n 发帖数: 679 | 15 Who is James?
I think UVa is good enough for my kids to attend; it seems other parents
here are more ambitious, hehe ... |
B******1 发帖数: 9094 | 16 UVA is perhaps the last school on our list. But we really like the honor
code thing in UVA and would like to see other colleges follow suit in this
respect. In addition, it will be James's call for the school he wants to
attend. We support him all the same.
If you want to measure the ROI thing, I would say: if James is happy, we are
happy. Right now, we are extremely happy. A tutor does cost over $50/h.
That's the easy part. But the hard part is that there is something money
cannot buy: the well-being of a healthy, intelligent, and honest child.
Comparing to that goal, what we did or will be doing is trivial.
