[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s not a rigged game.  It’s a product with limited supply and high demand so any way of allocating it is going to be somewhat irrational.

What drives me more nuts is the public schools funded by our tax dollars but which pick inferiors applicants from out of state or from rural parts of the state over better qualified kids from the suburbs.  So the whole country ends up in the crazy cycle where everyone pays more to send their kids farther away than they want.  [/quote]

Umm...the qualified kids from the rural areas of your state also deserve to use the State U system.  They have had a different first 18 years of their lives, so might not seem the same as your overachiever on paper, but that doesn't mean they are not qualified and equally smart.  They deserve UVA just as much as anyone else

+1 rural taxpayers in your state are also funding your state U. The state U is there to serve everyone. [/quote]

No they don’t. Many of these “rural” boosts are not poor farm kids or migrants. They are suburban bozos who live in a comfortable house and have a far easier academic experience. [/quote]

DP. Doesn’t matter what kind of house or neighborhood they live in. They’re state residents and state taxpayers. There are more than enough suburban bozos from NoVa at every single state school in Virginia already.[/quote]

The point is that they are academically inferior in every way. There are plenty of lower tier schools that would fit them well.[/quote]

You are so incredibly clueless, I feel sorry for you, actually. [/quote]
