<p>“Though I am always concerned about those who come to Emory who care more about school spirit than the academic environment”</p>
<p>I appreciate your concern, but many students look for different things when searching for an undergraduate institution with a great fit and for me, school spirit is a high consideration on MY list for searching colleges (though it may not be for everyone, which is perfectly fine). Despite the fact that I am looking for a school who is very passionate and is “rah rah” (as many CCers say), I most definitely don’t (and will not) compromise my academic drive so please don’t make presumptions statements about your so called “concerns” because you don’t like the fact that some students place school spirit on higher or of equal importance as a rigorous academic curriculum. I think that there are schools that have both, the it doesn’t have to go one way or the tohe</p>
<p>“Who cares? Seriously, get over it”</p>
<p>well I do, I started this thread in order to get information about potential inaccuracies about Emory that have been cycling in CC, but if they are deemed to be true, then perhaps vanderbilt is the better university for me. If you don’t care and you believe the world shouldn’t either, then you are fully entitled to your opinion, but I am just saying as the OP, this thread did not begin so that you can tell everyone that they should get over it or care about things that are only seemingly important to you.</p>
