Glad you enjoyed your experience there. It will be quite a change for the +1's son coming from such a small town in FL. He's been a bit overwhelmed, but I'm sure he'll settle in OK. He is just doing the History major for the first semester, then will get into whether to take on a double major or a minor in Sports Management. Don't want to load him up with too much at the beginning.

He made it through his first week in pretty good shape. We were worried he wouldn't get up for class, but he managed. He really likes his professors so far and has already made quite a few friends. 
He said eight of them want to use the other ticket for Rise Against on Feb 5th at the Patriot Center. I got him two tix for his birthday. He's even going in spite of it being the Super Bowl with his team the Giants!

good morning all! Been awhile since I was last in here! Looks like a lot has changed (site). Good to see familiar names still posting Ms. Perky, I graduated from GMU about 7 years ago, overall a great experience. Drove through campus a few months ago and they built a lot more dorms, so I'm sure there are more people on campus now over the weekends. I'm glad he's liking it so far.

Wow...look who's back!
The +1's son said they rocked the place. Even he was standing up and singing! Hard to imagine him doing that.
EDIT: He's made it through two weeks. A few bumps, but we think he'll do OK. The campus is amazing. So easy to get around and lots to do.

I was there up until 2010. The school was a nice school and I enjoyed it thinking back now. I was a commuter and made some nice friends while learning a thing or two. I studied Accounting and Information Systems Opermation Management there. Great campus, but they harrass the hell out of you once your out. Definately got a lot more expensive and expanded a lot in last couple years. Hope he enjoys it.
