[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in DC and I see VA posters talk about these schools as if they're ivies. Why??? I understand that UVA has a certain mystique as it's VA's only "elite"-approaching school, but, frankly, UVA isn't even Georgetown, nevermind Stanford or Yale. William and Mary is unique because of its size and also has some level of mystique but, again, I don't understand the commotion. It's essentially a public Wake Forest. Why? Same story with VT. Even less of a reason to get into a twist because it's just like every other large public school in the nation. It has nice architecture, sure, but...so what?! Can anyone enlighten me? [/quote] Because they are on par with elite privates for a fraction of the price if you are instate. Is this not obvious? While my kids didn't go there, VA's university system is literally one of the reasons we live in VA. [/quote]
