Yes...we would have loved for our daughter to go to uni in the UK...but she wasn't interested.
Would you have paid more here in say, a state university like Rutgers, than in the UK?

You, like I have been here for 2 minutes. People move back for whatever reason, that's their choice, timeframe is irrelevent.
You are obviously still in the honeymoon period or pretending to be.

Fair enough but I personally enjoy a variety and we certainly have that and I just love seeing differences in the weather day by day.
I agree, also its nice because its not too varied like Canada, was in the 40's this summer with the humidity and this morning its -1 and there is snow on the ground! brrrr!
