<p>Some thoughts:
- I think the Backstage article was more of a Consumer Reports style “best buy” list - not the least expensive - more of a “bang for your buck”
- I did, for myself, a while back, make a similar “best buy list” and both CCM and Elon were on my list
- A newer best buy is Texas State - they have great faculty and leadership and have a low in-state tuition and seem to have a lot of money for scholarships.</p>
