Getting my learning on

[cyrano]

Looking for scholarly advice. How would one, finding one's self in a new area, discover what the local schools are--specifically universities and colleges--and determine which of them have decent or good reputations regarding, say for instance, teaching History or Political Science?

Also? If I'm going to feel hung over then the least I could do is get drunk the night before. Maybe it was all the double eeps.

Two of my psychology professors went to Central Michigan University, which is not that far from Lake Orion. (They were among the better professors and are really nice.)

I know that you are looking in a different field, but that may help you...

I also found this: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=lake+orion&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hq=&hnear=Lake+Orion,+MI&gl=us&ei=HnuVS7-5NoKAswPZh-3wBg&sa=X&oi=geocode_result&ct=image&resnum=1&ved=0CAwQ8gEwAA

which may help figure out where the schools are.

I am looking for graduate schools and I look at their websites to get a sense of what the school is like. If their website is bad, I do hold it against them. :) Also, try Yelp!
