We are also from Greensboro...my daughter, is a sophomore this year. Have we seen your daughter in a show recently? Elon will be on my daughter's list of schools for mt as well although because we live here, I think she would prefer not to go here. Elon is has a wonderful mt program. Getting more and more competitive (thanks to forums like this I'm sure). There really isn't much to do in Elon itself as has already been said but a quick trip to Chapel Hill or Greensboro and there is plenty to do. Elon does a great job helping their mt students get professional paid work during the summer. Almost eveyone my d knows that goes there has a great part in something. The faculty is a fantastic plus to that program. They are great! There are also a lot of transplants here.
This entire area is also fantastic for theater! 2 professional dinner theaters, Professional regional theaters (Triad Stage and NC Theater) and great community theaters. You will never be at a loss for great shows! Truly top notch! There are also so many colleges around which also put on fabulous productions.
We moved here from NJ 10 years ago and every friend I have made since we have been here is from NJ, NY or CT. It's a like like the north but without the traffic and the potholes! It has never felt like the deep south to me. Elon is definitely worth taking a look into...it's a beautiful place! |
