Bill could elevate UF's status in state - (This can and will affect USF sports)

Florida specializes in Law and Business

UCF in Engineering and Computers

USF in medical and engineering

FSU is really good for Mass Comm, Music, and Law

But none can even be compared to ivy league.

Don't forget USF has one of the best accounting programs in the nation.

Not when I went there because I never would have made it through  lol

I was thinking Vandy or Texas might be the best schools in the south.  I guess you could call Texas west

Just another politician doing what politicians do best - blowing hot air.

The reason why California schools are all ranked so high is that the state dumps so much tax dollars on them. Florida will never be able to match that.

100  years ago californians realized that investing in education was wise and they never stopped

why do you think california leads this nation is so many areas of business,advances and life

the rest of the nation takesd cue from cali

i encourage all young people to head out here as there is so much opportunity

YUP _ and they lead the world in spending both money they don't have and other peoples money.

The proposed bill was amended in senate committee to include USF.  This is good for USF!

Obviously this creates less opposition from me since it includes my university, but it still really isn't relevant.

Nice that I cannot edit my horrible grammar...

Thanks for catching the typo. And my point was that FSU was the first large school in 50 years to build a medical program from scratch. Not saying it was the last. Interesting that a school that blew its cash on a small stadium and can't afford a football cheerleader program starts a medical school.

I just want to point out that FSU DIDNT start their medical program from scratch. They had the teachers and stuctures to teach future doctor since the 1970s

"The history of medical education at FSU dates back to 1971, the year the Program in Medical Sciences (PIMS) was founded as an expansion program of the University of Florida College of Medicine...... Through PIMS, students completed their first year of medical school at FSU and then transferred to UF to complete their medical education."
