Message: [QUOTE="Townie72, post: 2573372, member: 780"] Wait a minute. No one is comparing SU to Rutgers. We are where we should be given the size of the school and it’s academics. There is a pharma industry in NJ, but there’s pharma lots of places in the US including the Philadelphia suburbs and the NC research triangle. In size RU is a B1G fit. But in many ways it is not. Certainly in terms of the interest and support of the citizens of the State, it’s nothing like a B1G school. Kids in the Midwestern states actually dream of going to the State university. In NJ, it’s what you settle for if you can’t afford Lehigh, Lafayette, Villanova or any of the other state or private schools tha NJ residents so often prefer. Someone once said, “New Jersey’s most significant export is college students.” [/QUOTE]
