<p>I have to mention my daughter's school, Queens University of Charlotte. It is a small school right outside of downtown Charlotte. It has a beautiful campus in a very safe upscale neighborhood. She loves the small class sizes and wonderful professors. The internship and study abroad programs are very strong assets.</p>
<p>Packmom and candace, you both suggested Queens Univ. in Charlotte. Is Queens vey "white glove' to quote OP. Or possibly too religious for a family (like mine) looking at primarily non-sectarian schools?</p>
<p>My question about religion is based on a joint Christian education degree program I saw in the Queens catalogue.</p>
<p>I don't mean to hi-jack the thread, but there is on Queens Univ board. Apologies to those wanting more general info.</p>
<p>nyc, no Queens is not a religious school. My daughter would not be attending a conservative school. There is a nice mix of all types, considering the small size. pm me, if you would like further info on Queens.</p>
<p>Queens is affiliated with the Presbyterian Church I believe. Then again, so is Davidson. And Lafayette. And any number of other colleges that are probably believed to be private, secular institutions by most people. Or at least by most of the people who have ever heard of them.</p>
<p>What about UNC-greensboro. I didn't look up the racial diversity statistics on the school site, but Greensboro itself is:

<p>You didn't say where her interests might lie as far as a major. My kids have had several friends who attended there and liked it very much. It is also in a nice location as it isn't far to many other schools such as Elon, Wake, Winston-Salem State, UNC-CH, Greensboro College, and NC A&T State--a couple of which are historically black colleges.</p>
<p>Out of curiosity, I looked up racial statistics on Greensboro. From their factbook for the last year: ..."21% of undergraduate and 14% of graduate students were African-American."</p>
