William & Mary: R1 Research Institution

[Anonymous]

It seems like with the new Research Institution classification this readjusted some of the others.

They categorizations are accurate labels so far as this years' go, so I am fine with it.

The problem is with the status of grants being obliterated now and going forward, research will grind to a halt. Almost no progress will be made in the coming years if the despots in power have it their way. What a bunch of craven tools.

Pretty sure W&M gets basically none of the funding that is being cut. They were ranked like #188 on the list JHU was #1 on...

All the funding is in jeopardy. I work at a university far below W&M and my entire 500K grant is affected.

Anyone who thinks W&M should be in the same research category as JHU or Harvard is an idiot.

Evidence for change in standards?

How does the current R1 designation differ from past?
Research 1: Very High Spending and Doctorate Production is reserved for institutions that spend at least $50 million annually for research and award 70 or more research doctorates each year.

You think in 1 year, 40 institutions just miraculously raised their research spending to R1 status…?

DP but do you just not know? If you don't know just say that.

Someone doesn't understand rhetorical questions. Please get a degree and learn the basics of English before coming onto a forum.

The PP asked a direct question and you answered with a stupid question (probably because you can't answer the actual question).

A direct question is now a targeted accusation with a snarky undertone? Woo, the biases here are insane.

Accusation? What are you even talking about

Everyone needs to chill. Your kid at Michigan or UVA or whatever is still better than the kids at W&M or American. Ok? Is that what you wanted to hear?

I work at one of the new R1s. This was a years-long effort, hardly done in a single year. 🙄

Michigan actually has lower test scores than W&M and UVA which are tied in SAT scores and % submitting test scores.

Oh thank god, you confirmed what I expected: you cannot read either. Hope a literacy program passes by your way sometime! I'm supportive of your endeavors to improve your comprehension skills.

AS always, an insecure W&M poster. Of course, test scores are the way you believe what makes up an intelligent student body.

DP, but that is readable. You're commenting on a normal phrase.
