[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UVAers call it "prestigious" because it's a closed club for hyper-competitive kids who couldn't quite get into a real Ivy. There's a definite cutthroat atmosphere for meaningless club positions. Graduates have a chip on their shoulder and no real skills beyond networking with other equally insufferable alums. It's an average state school...great PR team though.[/quote] Native (Northern) Virginian here; smug and insufferable are the words I’d use to describe a UVA student and/or graduate. How do you know someone has graduated from UVA? They’ll tell you within minutes of meeting. The character of Andy from “The Office” reminds me of a stereotypical UVA grad - replace Cornell with UVA. It was a common practice in the early 1980s to cut off “Virginia” and display The University in your car window. JMU = Just Missed UVA taunt [/quote]
