[quote=Anonymous]I recently took my DD to tour VT. DH and I went to graduate school there (graduated early 2000). Omg it has changed and not for the good. Downtown is dead. I see the NIMBYs who fought development in downtown Blacksburg won. All the housing is built up outside of town making VT a commuter campus. Additionally, do not believe the admissions speaker when he says your kid won’t have TAs teaching. Your kid will absolutely have TAs teaching for professors. (We both taught in grad school!) I was shocked by that blatant lie. Pretty much any R1 school you will have TA teaching for professors because that’s how research works! Profs get research grants and buy back their teaching time.
