<pre><code> I recently received the ol' nod from the school of public health. Naturally, I'm drawn to Yale by it's interdisciplinary opportunities, status as a primo venue for highly regarded speakers/events, and, admittedly shallowly, it's prestigious label. But, I am curious as to the thoughts of those enrolled in classes within this school (or the school itself). Any thoughts (does the risen tide of Yale's endowment float the public health school's boats too? are the professors intelligent and engaging? what's the social scene in the grad school like?) would be much appreciated!

<p>D1 is taking her 3rd PH course this semester, so yes, she finds the instructors engaging, enthusiastic and helpful. She’s also hoping to participate in a PH program abroad this summer and conduct a PH research project abroad through Y grants. She’s not in the school of PH, just taking premed coursework and interested in PH, so I don’t know anything about the school itself, funding, social scene, etc.</p>
<p>Booklady, entomom. Thanks for the replies! I’ve already tried the grad forums-- not much there for PH. Other forums (SDN, grad cafe, etc.) seem helpful, too, but figured someone here may have taken classes/had experience with the PH School. Entmom, glad to hear your daughter enjoys her PH classes. YSPH seems like a very intimate program with some smart folks heading the classes.</p>
<p>Thanks again</p>
<p>Edit: I never tried asking about YSPH in the grad forums, though, so I’ll give it a shot. =)</p>
