[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s too bad that the flagship of a state with 8.75 million people in it only educates 17.6 thousand undergraduates.  Only 2/3 of them are Virginians. Citizens should demand that UVA have 82% from instate, like UN[b]C, since the cannot or won’t increase its overall size.  [/quote][/b]

UVA was built in 1819.  It is completely landlocked by the town that grew up around it.  So it cannot expand further unlike the huge California publics.  Nevertheless, there is an entity called the UVA Foundation whose mission it is to buy up real estate when available.[/quote]

WM is one of the 6 public Ivies. 1693 —way before UVA[/quote][/b]

If you are going to post like this, learn your history.  [b]UVA was one of the first public ivies - here - not W&M[/b]! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_Ivy.

W&M gets added in by other comers long after the intitial list was created and published.[/quote]

Both were included in the original public ivy list.[/quote]

Ironic that in obnoxiously trying to correct PP you made an error. [b]W&M was on the first list of public ivies. [/quote][/b]

That's not what PP said.  They cited the age of W&M and said it was a public ivy and not UVA.  Both were on the original list.  W&M's age is irrelevant.  If you are going to post, post not irrelevant info and omissions.[/quote]

Why are people arguing over something that doesn't really exist? And, why are they citing Wikipedia in a higher ed forum? This is the hill y'all want to die on? So many questions. [/quote]
