[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends on your circle and where you live. In Georgia, most people know and care about UGA, Ga Tech, etc. Emory, not so much- it’s better known as a hospital system than as a university. The obsession over private colleges and most OOS publics is limited to Atlanta and affluent-transplant pockets in other parts of the state. Then there are a whole bunch of small regional universities and colleges that no one really talks about unless there’s a scholarship/athletic commit involved. [/quote] G This has much more to do with class than anything. Emory is the largest employer of GA residents, mostly very high income earners. You dont think Emory being the hardest school in the state to get into and being only 15% instate population has something to do with the lack of overall popularity? Emory is no different than Rice in Texas as UT is the most popular but not the best school in the state. [/quote]
