[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]completely agree with OP. W&M is basically resting on its reputation from the past. Education is good but mediocre.  [/quote]

The president and board are well aware changes are needed

[quote]The board reviewed prior discussions from November, emphasizing the unique position the College is in compared to other elite public institutions and private universities. They noted that while the College is smaller than many public Ivy League schools, it is less academically rigorous than most private Ivies.

Many board members viewed this unique position in comparison to other colleges as unstable and underlined the need to grow the College.

College President Katherine Rowe emphasized the need to expand without physical disruption and the subsequent objective of preserving an intimate learning process. Rowe also repeated the goal of “National Preeminence” that the board wishes to bring to the image and ranking of the College.

“We must be more attractive,” Rowe said. “We need more demand.”

The board also discussed the financial advantage of degree specialization, as it improves the College’s academic diversity and draws in more applicants. The new Batten School of Coastal and Marine Science was particularly positively noted, as the College is one of the only universities in the commonwealth of Virginia to offer a degree in marine science.
