[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]VA is definitely in the top 3 as far as public education at the college level.   Its second tier schools JMU, GMU, etc,  are better than a number of state flagships.  [/quote]

Berkeley, UCLA, and Michigan are clearly the top three.  UVA is number 5 now, below UNC. Try to keep up. [/quote]

Try to read.  The state of Virginia is in the top 3 states in the US with respect to public education options.  Schools like JMU and GMU are better options than Ole Miss or Mizzou.  [/quote]

Is JMU really better than Mizzou? [/quote]

In many rankings they are basically the same.  However, Mizzou is their state's Flagship.  JMU is largely considered the #4/5 school in VA.    [/quote]

JMU and Mizzou are tied in the rankings, regardless of "flagship" status:

Exactly, so VA should be glad that they have 3 "better schools".  Many states do not.

Fact is per capita, VA has some of the best options for public college education.
