Harman, an idea for your son. '94 can advise better on value of a Bama degree

from a prestige and edumacational perspective, but hard to imagine it is horrible.

Of late, Bama has been handing out a lot of $$$ to non-southerners to get them to enroll.

My daughter, who wanted to go south, looked at this, and it was very compelling financially. Almost a free ride if grades and SAT are top tier, and they give you housing and $$$.

Plus, all the people in this program live in the same dorm, so it's not your smart kid getting dropped into general population. And, I tend to think that name brands hold up well in most perspectives.

And finally, their enrollment is heavily skewed female at something like 60/40.

Anyway, if a four-year degree is the desired outcome, this could be a way to do it. You risk raising a Bama fan, but if they are willing to pay most of his way ...

Imposing corporate abuse, neglect and greed on deserving victims.
