[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]well, none of the schools on this list are SLACs, so...[/quote]

but the guy who supposedly settled the debate said the SLAC he went to wasn't better than UVA where he taught.[/quote]
so he's...wrong? You know better then his own experience?[/quote]

No, just pointing out some limitations to his perspective--we all have blindspots and it was just funny for someone to offer up this one perspective as definitive after people had discussed so many different aspects.  The fact is his own schooling got him to where he is, which is an elite position.  I have nothing against UVA/W&M and actually have been one of the people arguing in their favor--just found this bit amusing.[/quote]

Not definitive, just one guy's perspective.  But the prof was in a good position to judge given his range of experience (which included watching students from UVA going off to top graduate programs like the one he attended).  I value his perspective on this question far more than the average DCUM poster.

You value what some guy said on the internet. Cool. Hey, I’m a professor and you’re an idiot. [/quote]
