I love JMU and the faculty has always gone out of their way to be helpful. It still surprises me when I see a professor outside of the classroom and they say hello and recognize me as being in their class; even the larger GenEd classes. I think any school is what you make of it. I can't imagine being bored here. The town of Harrisonburg is boring but JMU is not. There are plenty of parties if that's your thing and plenty of clubs. The most important thing is to get involved! I've read some of the other commments about JMU being nothing but a partying school with shallow people and that doesn't seem like the same school I go to. My friends and I go out one night a week and have a lot of fun going to apartment parties. But we all have part-time jobs and spend a lot of time hitting the books. It's a big enough school that you can find people who enjoy what you enjoy. And yes, I will graduate in four years. It really isn't that hard to do as long as you don't change your major a couple of times.
