[quote=deadzone][quote=paramount][quote=deadzone] But to suggest there is any correlation between academics and athletics is misguided.[/quote]
Maybe not a 1:1 correlation, but in my list these schools (for the most part) happen to have poor academics but prefer big investments in football. And that’s really all they’re known for – they make no other significant contributions.
LSU and Auburn for example have close to 90% acceptance rates. U of Phoenix has a lower acceptance rate![/quote]
A degree from any one of the schools on your list is 100 times more prestigious than one from U. of Phoenix. Plus while attending any of those schools you can actually enjoy your college experience with sports, partying, hot chicks, myriad of social and extra curricular activities on top of outstanding academic programs and facilities.
You clearly have no concept of University life, did actually attend a University yourself?[/quote]
I didn’t have those luxuries; I went to school to learn, acquire knowledge and skills so I could support myself.
