re: Tulane just wants to play

Laugh all you want NightMan, but it is a fact that LSU and Tulane are at the same level in most degree programs.

You are either incredibly ignorant or incredibly delusional.

In Engineering, LSU kicks Tulane's arse.

Tulane has cooperative engineering programs with Vanderbilt and Johns Hopkins. Are you really trying to assert that an engineering degree from LSU "kicks the arse" of one from Tulane/Vandy or Tulane/Johns Hopkins?

Business for LSU does in some degrees also.

This is even better. The Financial Times has ranked Tulane's finance program top 10 in the world twice in the last three years. They have a multi-million dollar simulated trading floor, an energy trading program that has been featured on CNN and CNBC, and a nationally renowned equity research program. LSU gets absolutely dominated in every business field other than accounting, which is probably a push due to the auditing program you guys have.

quote:

Tulane is a joke when they charge $40,000/year to people.

---

Nobody actually pays that other than poor students from rich families. And those "poor" students would still likely be top 10-15% at LSU. Tulane's financial aid department has a reputation nationally for being very generous.

Sorry if you find it funny

I find it funny because it is so delusional. By any objective, statistical measure (admissions numbers, endowment, spending per student, class sizes, average salaries at both beginning of career and midpoint, etc) Tulane dominates LSU. It's not that LSU is a bad school by any means, I firmly believe you're underrated by US News, it's just unfair to compare the two IMO. They have distinctly different goals.

BTW I will be bumping this so that you are forced to face your erroneous statements.
