Hey I needed your attention so what better title. What do you think about Drake University. Also I have a 1990 Toyota Camry it still runs good do you think it will last the winter?

Sorry Family, I wasn't online last nite.

Drake University - I saw your post yesterday and while I don't have strong knowledge about the school, here is what I know:

- At one time, it was known as the "Harvard of the Midwest." I don't know if that is still true today.
- Drake specializes in Law, Pharmacy, Business and I think it does very well in these areas. There may be other areas that I am not aware of.
- It is expensive, but so are most private schools. I didn't go there because I couldn't afford it.
- I think it is around 5-6,000 students, so you will probably have good class sizes and better rapport with the instructors because they have fewer students to deal with.
- The Drake area (as with much of DM), is changing and revitalizing.
- Drake just revamped their stadium and made it a great home for the Drake Relays, which is one of the top track & field events in the country. Relays week is a fun week, although Mother Nature seems to make sure it is either wet or cold.

Hope this helps!

PS Toyota's are solid cars. As long as you're doing the regular maintenance, oil changes, no problem in Iowa!
