[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In light of the current economic situation, UVA in-state.  No question.[/quote]

W&L ROI is much better.  [/quote] False equivalence, which you know if you are affiliated with W&L.  First, most W&L students are scions of wealthy southern legacy families who help their students place out into good paying jobs or they use the Greek system to place out into Wall Street or other high paying jobs. Second, as you know, many students at UVA go there to major in lower to middle income careers like teaching, nursing and middle level bureaucrat positions out if the Batten School m. They dedicate their lives to serving community not making money in Wall Street. Third, graduates of W&L are almost always alcoholics which takes its toll later in luge, if the make it to graduation at all ( you don’t want me to post those stories about alcohol related deaths.[/quote]

[b]Lord you’re a moron. UVA grad?[/[/b]quote]

Actually I went to Harvard but I taught at W&L[/quote]

You argue a higher percentage of UVA grads choose majors that lead to lower to middle income careers.  The following value add analysis controls for the mix of majors of graduates in the expected early career earnings.  It also controls for selectivity.  W&L graduates earn $77,600 median vs expected of $60,400 for a value add of positive $17,200.  UVA graduates earn $58,600 median vs. $61,000 expected for a value add of negative $2,400 per year.  The value add differential is $19,600 a year in favor of W&L.
