In the mid Atlantic most people have heard of UVA/WM

VT is probably the best know because of sports. JMU is a little less well known but fairly so.

Every other public school in Va - Longwood, Radford, GMU, ODU, CNU....pretty unknown.[/quote]

LOL at GMU pretty unknown.  Did you forget out the final four run in 2006 that put Mason on the map?  That tournament increased Mason's enrollment big time.

ODU has had some success in football since they started that program earlier this century.  [/quote]

I grew up out West, and GMU was not just "pretty unknown" but TOTALLY unknown - along with JMU and VT.

The only school that any of us heard of - or would think about attending - in MD/DC/VA was Georgetown.[/quote]

Gee, kind of like those of us who grew up on the east coast have never heard of Mills College (CA), Whitworth University (Seattle), or Westminster College (Utah)?  There are good regional schools all over the U.S.  Just because you've never heard of them doesn't mean a thing.[/quote]
