Not true. I was at RMA in the 80s and I have a very negative opinion of the school. While I was there, however, I thought the program was the cat's pajamas. Most people did, to my knowledge. Son of Serbia was also at CEDU, I believe, before Brown took over, and he has some strong opinions about the place, as does blownawaytheidahoway, who was at RMA when I was. (We probably knew each other.) He has a very long account of his runaway story in the runaway thread.
