<p>Thanks Bernie for the response. I am very strongly considering Emory, most likely for Early Decision. I’m actually going to visit next week.</p>
<p>Do you guys think not being Division I hurts this school, and not even having a football team? I mean besides the Ivys, only 5 schools ahead of Emory in the USNews rankings are Division III (MIT and CalTech, but do those really count? Also UChicago, WashU, and Hopkins, but JHU is DI lax). Correct me if I’m wrong, but coming from a sports fans standpoint, I first learned about colleges because of the DI football and basketball, not academics.</p>
