So now MD and DC are in the south? 🤣 Hahaha! I love how people manipulate data. [/quote]

A link was provided explicitly showing that according to the US census regions, yes, MD and DC are in the south.[/quote]

Sure, technically the census bureau throws MD and DC into the south bucket for statistical purpose, but let's be real- outside of that narrow context, no one in their right mind actually thinks UMD or Georgetown as southern schools. When people talk about going to school down south, their thinking SEC country or deep South culture, not the beltway. Think Carolinas, Florida, Georgia, Alabama; NOT Maryland or DC. Lol!
