Ew why [/quote]

Because prestige doesn’t matter for most degrees - why not go to a resort and enjoy yourself for four years while you get the same degree as people burning the candle at both ends in miserable weather?  Duh. You obviously haven’t visited. [/quote]

Wrong. I have visited many times and even spent time at the Westin and La Hacienda. And even after all the time I spent there,  I would still never send my kids there over a VA school. Have you ever actually looked at the education system there?  There’s a reason they pull students from out of state. [/quote]

I lived in Tucson for 14 years.  Like all states, Arizona has a wide range of schools.  I know a lot of kids who went to the U of A, including a public Az school Coca Cola Scholar. My own kids attended some excellent private schools while we lived there, yes. But like most cities, the school quality varies significantly by district and Tucson is no different.  Foothills are their McLean. UHS is their TJ.  Same story, different state.   If you can get into UVA or W & M and pay in state, great.  Most kids can’t. And not one of the other schools in VA are any better than U of A. [/quote]
