[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I thought it was all male[/b]. It was in the Hampden Sydney, Hollins, Sweet Briar category when I was in college—for the rich less bright southern kids.  But this was the early 90s. Even then WL was top of those.

As a native NoVA it always made me think of the HS in Arlington of the same name. (Renamed Washington Liberty)[/quote]

W&L used to be an all male school; became co-ed in 1985 (although the law school at W&L admitted women in the early 1970s). Based on some who attended when it was all-male, there was a significant closeted gay population.

W&L has always had--and still has--a weird vibe. The Johnson Scholarship program tries to attract nicer students with generous scholarships. Need leadership potential, good grades, pass an interview, and have financial need if I recall correctly.

Beautiful location. [b]Largest Greek population in the country[/b].[/quote]

I should have written: Highest percentage of students who go Greek of any school in the nation.[/quote]
