W&M just became R1.

Amd opened 5 new dorms this year.

Has a new dining hall coming online in the next month or two.

Has the Gates Center in progress

Got a massive gift for the new Marine Science school (tuition is now free for marine science majors), and updated the VIMS campus (which has to help here)

And has another massive grant to attract/ lower tuition for OOS students.

And also huge infusion for the Data Analytics/ Physocs school.

Just started offering an interdisciplinary AI minor with any major.

And now is one of the few (non Hillsday/Liberty/Trump aligned) colleges in the country that has found a way to actually increase their federal research funding.

How many (non-religious, public) schools can you name that are pulling in more funding in 2025 than the year before?  While managing not to not bend the knee to Trump (ahhmmm UVA).

And after tomorrow, Dems will have unified control of the Governorship and Legislature. So, it’s a safe state for women and stability among educational institutions.

And that’s one year.

We have three more years of Trump to go. If you are trying to read tea leaves, WM seems like an awfully good bet. It will be interesting to see if their ED numbers continue to shoot up. [/quote]

This is all true. But why is there such little excitement about W&M in my kid’s school? Do they have a problem marketing to Gen Z? The boring and nerdy stereotype seems to be a big problem. [/quote]

I have 3 recent grads.

All of them see WM as the place to go if you want to major in English, social sciences type degrees.[/quote]
