		<description>not on-top, but today they were saying on npr that US edu [high-school] standards are not deteriorating.  it&#039;s just the world standards went too far ahead.  and the us stadards are sort off got stuck at the same level.  this sounded a really lame excuse for non-development in one of the most developed countries.  as for gw, i have a coupld of friends taht studied there and i would not say the edu they got matches the money they paid. no offense.  but i relly see edu is too subjective here i the us.  and the marks as well.  i was shocked to see phd program guys dropping out - my genios classmatres - just b/c they were not either s social wiith faculty; or not american; or too many people from the same country, and so for even representation lets keep just one; or two americans were kept just b/c they were americans.  i love americabnd, but i this case EVERYONE  in the class knew it was a political decision.  edu system is not the best one here.  but where can one find a good one?

		<description>I say... thanks Dad!! ;).  

Just kidding.  Actually, I didn&#039;t go to undergrad there but got a Masters.  Their Masters programs are right on track with most private MA programs price-wise and fairly reasonable.</description>
