Message: [QUOTE="businesslawyer, post: 3965725, member: 55"] Is Fairfield more prestigious, and still able to attract more students. Yes. But it's living off it's past. The rest of your post made my point completely. It's great to have a great nursing school. We need good nurses. But training nurses is nothing like training well rounded and intellectually curious college students. Is Dolan good, for an institution of Fairfield's quality? Yes. That is the school's biggest asset. But they are moving away from being a true college, and towards training people for jobs in these two particular fields. I'm glad you are a proud alum, but I'm not making this stuff up. I live in town. This is what I'm hearing from trustees, employees and grown ups who attend classes in Fairfield's "lifetime learning" program. [/QUOTE]
