1 True to JMU
Florence has done an excellent job capturing the true life of a JMU student. This young writer is destined for the top.
2 Awesome.
This book is awesome, and by awesome, I mean totally sweet. Hands-down, this is the best of the College Prowler series. The information is all right on. Sometimes I can't believe how great this book is, but I feel it in my heart.
3 A truthful look at JMU
College Prowler's Off the Record guide to James Madison University portrays a sort of "behind the scenes" look. It's the closest thing you'll get to going there without... well, going there. If you're looking for a guide that tells you what's really cool and what's not from a student's prospective, this is the guide you'll want. From the party scene to the on and off campus living, this guide will give you a little taste of just about anything -- and then you can decide whether or not you want a real taste (aka going there). For prospective or just curious parents and students, this guide should be a tremendous help. I am a senior at James Madison and I learned a ton of new information as I was writing this book. This book is as complete a guide as I could create (and was also quite the research project!). A guide like this would have been priceless when I was deciding where to go. I enjoyed writing this guide and would recommend it to anyone interested in JMU!

Quote of the Day:


Q:	How many existentialists does it take to screw in a light bulb?

A: Two. One to screw it in and one to observe how the light bulb
itself symbolizes a single incandescent beacon of subjective
reality in a netherworld of endless absurdity reaching out toward a
maudlin cosmos of nothingness.

Some of you ... may have decided that, this year, you're going to celebrate
it the old-fashioned way, with your family sitting around stringing
cranberries and exchanging humble, handmade gifts, like on "The Waltons".
Well, you can forget it. If everybody pulled that kind of subversive stunt,
the economy would collapse overnight. The government would have to
intervene: it would form a cabinet-level Department of Holiday Gift-Giving,
which would spend billions and billions of tax dollars to buy Barbie dolls
and electronic games, which it would drop on the populace from Air Force
jets, killing and maiming thousands. So, for the good of the nation, you
should go along with the Holiday Program. This means you should get a large
sum of money and go to a mall.
-- Dave Barry, "Christmas Shopping: A Survivor's Guide"
