Same. Liked the smaller size [/quote]

No, no. Didn’t you get the memo? The only possible explanation for picking WM over UVA is that your kid must be “quirky.”  😀[/quote]

That is so on point with dcum![/quote]

As a VT grad, I was sort of flabbergasted by the number of guys in full on khakis, vests, polos for just partying at the clubs on a random college night to the bars when we recently visited.  I mean my kids wear that to their private school for dress code, but not typically what they hang out in when not in school or a night out with friends.  Do all the schools dress like this or is this still a UVA thing? My son is an athlete, but gets turned off by an overly 'bro' culture so not sure the fit is there.

I agree. The air was toxic there.  My son was accepted but picked Michigan
The bro culture was a turnoff to both my son and my daughter.  [/quote][/quote]

+1. Same. Opted for different (private) college.

The people in towels and robes, walking across the main lawn, are common place, because although the "lawn" rooms are considered desirable, they are tiny, old, and have no bathrooms - so students literally have to walk across campus to pee or shower.  Which is kind of off putting, even if you don't have to live there. [/quote]

The students who live in lawn rooms  do not “literally have to walk across campus to pee or shower.”  But thanks for trying to conjure up images of students walking half a mile in their bathrobes just to pee. There are bathrooms for the lawn rooms directly behind the lawn rooms. And no, the rooms aren’t tiny; they are typical bedroom size with only 1 person living in the room.  But you did get one thing right; they are desirable.[/quote]

I lived in one, you idiot. [/quote]

Too bad you didn't realize there were bathrooms close by and spent the whole time walking across campus to pee.[/quote]

They have sinks so no need to walk anywhere to pee.  [/quote]

Girls are hoisting themselves up on sinks to pee,, where they brush their teeth and wash their face?[/quote]
