According to the Bloomberg article, Vanderbilt University has seen their stock rise meteorically by branding themselves as apolitical and fun instead of an activist hotspot like the Ivies. they're seen huge increase in interest from families across the country that want their kids to evade left-wing monoculture at the Ivy League and are now getting kids that in other years would've gone to HYP.[/quote]

No one is turning down HYP for Vandy. No one.[/quote]

I think Vandy has a small number of full merit scholarships.  Some kids might take those.[/quote]

Kids actually pick Vandy over HYP when they have a scholarship offer. Free Vandy is worth it over full pay HYP. [/quote]
Students do that at all the schools at this tier. Rice, Emory, WashU, ND, CMU, Georgetown etc. The article is conservative propaganda. When including test scores Vandy isnt the most selective school of this bunch, Rice is. [/quote]
