As someone who grew up in the south and couldn't wait to get away from all of this, I find this so ironic and borderline laughable.
Why?
DP - because they are mediocre schools in generally lousy environments and do not have any national stature unless you are on the football team.
lol. Oh, honey. Stay clueless.

No. Financial difficulties. Moody downgraded it. Google it.
If Oxy was good enough for Obama, a Nobel prize winner and a one-time Washington politician, it’s good enough for your kids.
He left the same way he left Columbia and Harvard. No one is a perpetual professional student. Mr Honorable Prez had to go out and get the Nobel peace. Dunno what for but he did it.
And he left Columbia to go to Harvard and never lookEd back. Sounds like you had a hard reject from Oxy.
I have no dog in this fight. But you sure sound like your kids fell below 50%

I’m from Wisconsin. Whitefish Bay is like the Wisconsin version of Bethesda or upper NW so not sure what you’re talking about.

People here putting Elon on same level as Davidson and Wake Forest are crazy. Yes, better than it was 10 years ago and fine school but it is no where close to Davidson and WF which are elite Stone Ridge go to schools.
Pst...your snobbery is showing.

I don’t think you know anything about Madison or the rest of Wisconsin.
