[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What the hell is UVA?  I grew up in California and and live in the Northeast. No one at my kid's private ever talks about this school. Why is this a thread?[/quote]
Some people out west know about UVA, but I don't think it's all that highly regarded by most Californians, not like it is in the DC area, which is fine.  It makes sense that a state school is more highly regarded in the region than outside of it.  Only schools like Cal, UCLA and Michigan probably have a high national profile.

Outside the DC bubble, people don’t know Cal on the East Coast. [/quote]

Whatever your petty squabble…that’s just not true.  Now most know it as Berkeley.[/quote]

How do you know this? Plenty of people know UVa and hasn’t heard of Cal. They’re provincial, just like folks that don’t know UVa [/quote]
 :roll:

I mean hard to really know, but here's a couple of lists:
