[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maryland likely wins on diversity because there are black students who are given educational opportunities than in Virginia. Especially if you compare College Park to Blacksburg. College Park is close to DC and there are in-state students from local counties that could commute if they wanted to. And these students are certainly seeing UMD-CP as a local, attainable college outcome that feels close to home. Even for instate - that's a big difference from driving 4 hours to the mountains - where it's not nearly close to home (and certainly would take more funds).  [/quote]

Virginia has an equivalent in George Mason.  It's just as diverse as UMD-BC, and just as close to DC as UMD-CP.  And UMD-CP is waaaaay down this list:

Yes but UMDCP is a better university than GMU, and OP is talking about UVA, VT and UMDCP.

But, the list does seem to support what OP is stating, that UVA and VT aren't diverse (W&M even less so).[/quote]
