Nerdy girls don’t end up with star athletes
My nerdy son is a star athlete. He doesn't like dumb girls.

W&M definitely a good option for nerds who have the grades! I’d say it’s more of a liberal arts nerdy vibe (lots of foreign service types) than the math/science/tech/D&D geeky vibe.

So cliche.
Star athlete with the pretty, popular girk.
It is 2023. How are her grades? Career options?
Try to evolve people.
How are her grades where? Like I said, she got into UVA. Do you think she had terrible grades?

To show the DD has some value, of course

My kid is a total nerd and cannot drink (medical reasons). She chose Virginia Tech over W&M and loves it. She laughs at the people who can’t walk and found great math/science geek friends. You just never know what will work.

My DD similar preferences and we are going down this weekend to check it out. I went to law school there. Probably a great fit IMO but she's probably not there stats-wise. Maybe will give it a shot anyway.

That's interesting that you said it was dead quiet on a Friday afternoon, Sunday and a Monday. What day/time? Was it the same weekend? I have one DS that graduated from W&M and one that is currently a student there. Every time I've been on campus, there are lots of students wandering around. If the weather is good, there are usually kids sitting in the sunken garden or around the Sadler Center. All freshmen and sophomores are required to live on campus - even students who live in Williamsburg are required to live on campus. I was just there for Family Weekend, and it also was the weekend before Halloween. On Friday night, I saw hundreds of students, all in Halloween costumes. There were kids walking to go into the fraternity houses. As I was leaving campus, I saw large groups of students in costumes walking on the main road around campus.
Yes, there is a drinking at W&M. But it is also "cool" to study and do homework. My older DS loved it and my younger one does too. They both are pretty social but much prefer to hang with a small group of people, drinking a beer and watching a sporting event. They do not enjoy loud, crowded "Animal House" style parties, which I don't think are the norm at W&M.
What I ment by dead quite is no kegs flowing. No weed smell. Seems like a nerd paradise. If you go to UVA on a Friday afternoon the kegs are flowing at the Frat houses!
This describes every university visits I've ever gone on. Even where parties are plentiful, they aren't part of the campus tour! (Or happening during the daylight hours that I visit.). My college won't even get dressed for a party til 10pm.

Every college has drugs and alcohol don’t be absurd and get off your high horse
Your kid isn’t better than other kids bec they choose to be what you call a nerd.
Grow up and your kid will make it one semester if that.
William and Mary has the same drugs as any other school.
This is a crazy strong reaction to an innocent post. Are you okay, PP?
Must be a Loudoun Love Warrior. They always have nasty drunk comments.
