<p>So, I decided to attend Bowling Green over Michigan State (Didn't like the journalism dept. and the campus). Most of my friends (Note: I live in Michigan) think that was a poor decision and that MSU is a million times better. But, are they really that much different academically? From my understanding they are about the same, MSU having the edge in programs such as business and criminal justice and BGSU having the edge in Humanities (what I'm mainly interested in)</p>
<p>MSU is a better school but they aren't THAT far apart academically.</p>
<p>If you know that you are interested in the humanities, then it is the strength of that program that you should be concerned about. Anyway, if you feel that you would be happier going to BGSU, then you shouldn't worry about what your friends think about it.</p>
<p>yea, i know. There's no way I could ever go to MSU, too many kids from my HS are going and I really don't like the general vibe of the campus. I was just wondering how they compared to one another</p>
<p>^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^</p>

<p>BG is where all the kids in OHIO that couldn't get into OSU, Miami OH, and Ohio U. go. Not even close to MSU in quality.</p>
<p>BGSU is not even close to MSU in academic quality, but you should go where you want to go.</p>
<p>BG is a hella awesome party school. It was 2nd on my list after KSU. I actually probably would have gone there if my money situation was better at the time.</p>
<p>It's better than UT (that's U of Toledo for all you non-Ohioans out there).</p>
<p>Seriously, though, I don't know a lot about BGSU--even though I applied there and it's 1/2 hour from my house--but they are known as a party school, and have a good (music) education program. Everyone from my school who doesn't go to UT goes there.</p>
<p>I know some pretty smart graduates of both schools, and all are happy having gone to the places they chose. It's too bad your classmates want to run down your choice. A million times better? Pshaw.</p>

<p>^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^</p>
<p>BGsu(STDu) sucks...for real</p>
<p>bumpbumpbump</p>
<p>MSU is far better academically then BG, I dont know what that person was talking about when they said they were almost the same</p>
<p>I know someone who went to Bowling Green State. He is a saxophone player, so, if you want to major in sax, that is the place to go. Otherwise, MSU is much better.</p>
<p>By the way, the Bowling Green graduate I know makes pretty egregious grammatical errors in both his speech and writing. I get my impression of the school from him.</p>
