We can all pick up on different vibes when we visit schools; but for purposes of OP's list, it's a southern school.

There is a difference between being “southern” and being in the south region of the US census.

Most people use cultural attributes to define “southern”, not just how the government rallies up the population. e.g. no one considers Delaware to be “southern”.

OP even makes reference to the civil war “south” which makes the census grouping even less relevant.

OP's "the south rises" wasn't in ANY way referring to the Civil War, you twit. She was talking about the rise of southern universities - and she's absolutely correct.

It's a phrase that refers to the post civil war tensions. Perhaps you are unfamiliar with American history, tw@t.

Wow. Your post speaks volumes about you. And yes, of course I'm familiar with our Civil War history and post-Civil War tensions. Grouping universities by geographical region has *zero* to do with that, as much as you would love to argue otherwise. It's too bad you're utterly triggered over a silly expression.

The south is the future of academia in America.

LOL. No. And while "south" on a map, I would not count JHU, Gtown, UVA, UD, W&M as "southern" schools. If you're saying they are, you've obv never been to a true southern school.

I wouldn’t consider Duke a southern school either. It's a great school that geographically is in the south but in no way is it a "southern school."

It's amazing how hard some of you are teying to pretend certain schools aren't southern. Yes, like it or not, Duke and Emory are southern universities.

+1
The pretzel-twisting is comical. If a school is geographically in the south, it is a southern school. And to the PPP: UVA, W&M, VT and yes - Georgetown, are all considered southern schools. Georgetown is more mid-Atlantic but in no way is it considered the northeast.

There is no planet but yours where Georgetown is considered a southern school.

Assuming you live on the same planet as the federal workers at the census bureau, you need to accept the fact that Washington DC is considered to be located in the south, as is the state of Maryland. When those responsible for that information change their minds, then we can all reconsider Georgetown's location. For now, it's in the south.

Exactly.

As I stated - it's definitely more mid-Atlantic, but is absolutely not northeastern, if that's what you're trying to claim.
