[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I cannot believe I am reading a post from an in-state Virginia resident saying that that would rather have their kids go to a  CTLC school instead of W&M.  What a mistake.  [/quote]

My husband went to a big public school, top 25 in the USNWR. I went to a CTCL school. Same major. We both liked college and we both have PhDs now.

He will tell anyone who asks that he thinks my school provided a better education and he recommends CTCL colleges and their ilk to anyone who asks. Not for every kid, but for those who want a more personalized experience.

No one is saying that any school is ‘better’ than W&M or UVA. But the point, lost on you through 14 pages, is that college is not one size fits all and some people, obviously not you, might not WANT to go to the most prestigious college they get into. And, in some cases, some of these colleges might give some students a better education than some prestigious schools.

The only person speaking universally about any of this is you.[/quote]
