W&L is definitely stronger. You are correct that Richmond draws more from the Northeast.


It depends on what you mean by stronger. Potato potato.

W&L has a better campus and more sports. Academically there is no difference.


How does W&L have a better campus?

Yeah I find the campus a bit ugly and strange. “Woo slave buildings!” I guess being educated on the plantation has its appeal.


Are you sure you want to go down that road? Make sure you don’t have some well known Ivies or uva on the list.



True. Almost every institution of higher ed on the east coast has ties to or was built by slaves, including Harvard. https://www.npr.org/2022/04/27/1094971897/harvard-university-report-slavery-slave-trade-reparations-students

Built by? More like had a single building built. UVA should be ashamed.

Richmond is suburban. W&L is in a college town.

It was the same at a private high school my kids attended too. No idea why any adult thinks that official peer judgment is a good idea in today’s world. Kids are anxious and depressed over feeling constantly judged already. May as well just hand them a rope or a gun.


Doesn't UVA do the same thing?


Yes and it's a huge problem there too.

Cheating isn't really addressed at UVA.



False. The student-run honor committe and judicial court is a very big thing at UVA.https://honor.virginia.edu/

False. All over UVA reddit and all over the minds of many parents of UVA students who are angry about curves being slanted because of dishonest people.
