[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I speculated starting this thread just last night on thread pertaining to NESCAC schools!  Damn.  Rarely see negative about:
Williams
Amherst
UNC
Wisconsin 
Illinois

Every other school gets trashed [/quote]

UNC gets lots of negative comments. Too parochial, too southern, cheating athletic department, etc.

Stanford seems to be well respected. 
U of Washington isn't discussed much but doesn't seem to generate negative reactions.[/quote]

UNC used to get a ton of negative comments that all seemed to be from the same poster; all that said "UNCcheat" about an athletic department scandal that happened very long ago (and in which many other big athletic schools like UVA, Kentucky, Kansas, Duke were also implied).  People still love it. It still gets a ton of positive comments here.

People seem to also love:  UT- Austin, Berkley, Pomona, Wisconsin, Elon, Pitt, Ga Tech, Vanderbilt, and CNU.

[b]Everyone hates Duke[/b], sorry.
