I’ve been to Adams Morgan and Dupont Circle many many many times. Like I said, they are very happening to some but for someone like me that has lived in big cities, they are just okay and not that big (several blocks). Dupont Circle is DEAD past 10pm during the week. Chicago’s Halsted/Clark streets have shops/restaurants that go for couple miles and with more 24hr places. Also food in DC is mediocre at best but for some, it may be world-class. It’s all about perspective.

^Applied math in US News is a subspecialty of math. It’s based on responses from others in math departments. Like I said, NU’s ESAM is a separate department in the engineering school, not arts and sciences. For what it’s worth, NU is ahead of JHU in math by US News.
