Wake Forest University

Date: Nov 26 2002
Major: Economics (This Major's Salary over time)
Wake Forest was an excellent choice for me 18 years ago. The professors and classes were generally excellent. I don't doubt that they are still excellent. Unfortunately, the sticker price of the school has outpaced its reputation. It saddens me to say that at those prices, I'll send my children to Harvard (same price, better reputation) or UVA (better price, same reputation). I'm an economist, I will pay for a human capital investment (or reputation) but not consumption.
