I actually think the article did a great job of accurately showing the two sides of exeter. Dwelling on how much money they spend on squash courts or football stadiums gives the wrong impression and just perpetuates the common criticism that exeter is elitist. The reality is far from the truth and the article was pretty accurate in demonstrating that.
- bokonist 19y agoMy point was not about elitism ( your right, Exeter is much less elitist than some people think ). My point was that from my experience, the vast majority of Exeter's recent spending has had no impact on the quality of the education. The old student center, science building, and squash courts were more than adequate. The $100+ million spent on the new ones is just over the top. It's a shame that donors couldn't find a better use of their money.
