Figured I'd ask people here since I'm many states away. I'm looking at the Grad program for my Master's degree and don't know too much about the school other then what's on their website. Anyone here know anything good or bad regarding the school itself or curriculum? Good school/bad school? Ever work with any Grad students from there? Any stories? Anything at all?

Looking at a lot of schools all over the country recently and slowly narrowing down the list. Some schools I can't get in, some I can but dont like the location, etc. so any bit of info can help. Thanks guys.

Great school. Everyone who disagrees can suck it ;)

It is my alma mater. Had a great time there. It is a small private school but I felt a really good institution.

I liked the local community. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.

I actually really like the smaller school aspect. As long as its near a city (for internships/assistantships/etc). Glad to hear u enjoyed it. How was the atmosphere?

I don't know how any self respecting conservative could talk poo about Jesse Helms' alma mater

 

Yikes....Jesse Helms was a completely senile and crazy mofo.  That dude was trouble.

 

Only thing I liked him for was that he gave me my nomination to attend the United States Military Academy at West Point.

 

There is nothing wrong with Wingate as a school.....it is just a pretty expensive school that does not have the pedigree and reputation that other schools of similar costs gives you.

Unless it has a rather large endowment, going to a small liberal arts college for grad school may not be the best path.  Unless you are doing it in humanities and that's fine.  They have many leather bound books and creaky old libraries to fall asleep in during research.

 

 

OK, not really.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
