Dear borotiger. Vanderbilt USED to be the standard that the rest of the SEC would have done well to emulate. The sole exceptions were Sewanee, Tulane, and Georgia Tech. All three are no longer in the SEC. A Vanderbilt degree USED to be prestigious. No longer. I’m retired now, but with the fundamental shift to progressive thinking at Vanderbilt (see transgender policy and treatment), it’s just another leftist indoctrination center.

My former employer saw a prospective candidate with a Vanderbilt degree and immediately moved them to further evaluation, sight unseen. This was in 1992, when I started. 31 years later…it’s just another brick in the wall. THIS is the state of American education. And it’s sad.

The medical center isn't even a part of the university. They've been separate entities for 7 years.
