[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thought UVA wasn't as pretty as I was expecting and Villanova was bland. Both are terrific schools, so no knock on them otherwise. [/quote] UVA is only a World UNESCO site. Try harder next time[/quote] I hate when people trot out this line. You should try harder to make a decent argument. Being a World UNESCO site refers to "cultural and natural heritage", not whether or not the location is physically attractive. And in the case of UVA that would really only apply to the Lawn/original Grounds anyway. The majority of the University is not at all pleasing to look at. I didn't like it when I was a student there, and I don't like it now (and neither did my kids). I did like VT a lot more than I expected. It still wasn't what DC was looking for, but we were both pleasantly surprised that we didn't hate it or find it dull.[/quote]
