[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UVA needs to figure out how to expand so our top students can stay in state. No, my high stats kid doesn’t want to go to W&M or VT. Virginia is failing the taxpayers. [/quote]

if your kid doesn't want to go to W&M or Tech, or any of the other great state schools we have here, how is that VA failing us? That's your kids choice. [/quote]

We are fortunate that Virginia offers lots of great choices; it doesn't mean "top students" (however that may be defined) are entitled to admission to the in-state school of their choice.[/quote]

They should be, though.  It's like that in other states.[/quote]

Tell me, o[b]ther than University of Texas at Austin, which states guarantee that "top students" will be admitted to their in-state school of choice?[/quote][/b]

Texas is actually the only one.  Their system is that the top 10% of high schoolers get to go.  It's not a perfect system and some abuse it but at least you know what you are dealing with.  California, Michigan and UVA (the other top states) are not like that.[/quote]

I believe there is proposed legislation in Wisconsin and Maryland [/quote]
