Someone posted in the past couple of weeks all that info about total enrollment, broken down by class, avg GPA, ACT, SATs, etc ... and I have looked everywhere for those numbers and that post. I'm on my phone sitting here having a debate with UVA, OSU and NC State friends of mine.
Does anyone know where that post might be found? I've gone back three pages ... thought for sure I was going to find it in one of the funds or academic related threads but I have struck out.
Seems like we were discussing old enrollment numbers, old SAT scores ... I thought it might be either in the thread where we were discussing the Colisseum or the new building projects or the academic honor role stuff ... but ... I .... can .... not .... find ...... it.
Help please and muchos gratziass in advance per favore.

Ohhh, it was silly really. We were just sitting around drinking a little too much and betting on who's programs had tougher admissions standards combined with higher enrollment numbers.
I have since talked to Mary Wagner, among others, and found that we compare very favorably with just about anyone in the conference, with the exception of Vandy of course ... and that our Honors Program is actually Top Five in the SEC year-in and year-out.

What was your degree in ... and how long ago and ... there are a lot of college grads - diploma holding card-carrying recent grads especially - who are having trouble finding a job these days.
Or are you saying a skin from SC is not ... wait, what are you saying my brutha. I'm confused.

As they say, it ain't what you know, it's who you know. Now that your foot is in the door make the most of it.
Back when I came out of college very few people actually went to college ... it was 3 out of 10 or something like that. These days you have to have an MBA or Phd it seems. When, in fact, it's all nonsense ... what really matters is what you do once you are a member of the work force.
Always be on time, always be willing to do what others will not, always be the first one there and the last one to leave, always go above and beyond when tasked with a mission ... you've heard it all before but if you do those things you will succeed. And first chance you get, once you've gotten all of your ducks in a row and have as little debt as possible, find a niche to fill, something you really enjoy, and go into business for yourself. Even if it means less money at first, because it will also mean more freedom eventually - if you do it right.
And with a background in banking you'll know how to talk to bankers ... that's key.

agreed with Rooster. I'm in finance at a brokerage firm working for a guy who was the first million dollar producer in SC and was in the top 10 at Merrill before going Independent. He always reminds us that after 35 years in the business that he has met a lot of and all kinds of millionaires. The only one that he hasn't/won't meet is a lazy one.
