I am going to plug my school (Christopher Newport University) because I love it and it is a very up and coming campus. The president is changing a lot of things to make us more well known, from academics to the way the campus works. There a variety of programs that students can get involved in on campus, including the President's Leadership Program, which is hard to explain if you are not in the program (which I am not). We do have a journalism major, but we also have a strong PolySci major (our current president used to be a Virginia Senator too) and many strong programs. You're not in the middle of nowhere (Williamsburg is 20 minutes away, Virginia Beach is 30-45 depending on traffic) but it isn't completely rural either.
One thing that is changing a lot recently: as of this year's freshman class, students are required to spend all four years in campus housing. We're not huge, but we're not tiny either, and it is definitely a school becoming more and more recognized after college.
Also, (since I just got back from work and my brain is scattered) we have an excellent Career Planning Center. They just set up a new website for students to find jobs and internships, and it is available even after you graduate.
Go Captains!
