Lack of Economic Diversity

<p>Thank you Rockvillemom and cptofthehouse for your comments. Elon is ranked in the top 10 of many college categories; including #1 fpr student success and top 25% best value. I certainly wouldn’t be concerned about its economic diversity rankings; I am much more concerned with the professors and the education they are providing. We are a middle class family and D went to a public high school that was 40% free and reduced lunch so she is well aware of economic diversity. D has found all sorts of diversity at Elon and has friends from one end of the economic scale to the other. D made Elon affordable for herself b/c she Earned two academic scholarships and has an on-campus job. I believe she is getting an excellent education through engaged learning, travel abroad and the professors she learns from daily. She couldn’t be happier. I agree with Rockvillemom, I have no interest in subsidizing anyone else’s education and I applaud Elon for continuing to keep their tuition bill on the lower end for private schools. </p>
