lol......public ivy. That’s cute.
It’s a term that’s been around for nearly 35 years. Look it up. You won’t look like a moron the next time you post!
Yes, and people have been mocking the naked insecurity and sheer idiocy of the term for 35 years.
Reminiscent of the imbecile in HS that would refer to Sewanee as the Harvard of the South....you clowns continue to amuse.
Even William & Mary refers to itself as a "public ivy". Just get over it. https://www.wm.edu/about/history/coolfacts/index.php
Of course it does! William & Mary is desperate to be thought of as prestigious given declining enrollment and the gender imbalance of its student body. This is exactly the sort of circumstance that would lead a school, or an insecure parent of a kid at the school, to try to claim the term has any real meaning.
Or, maybe it does so because it was included in both Moll's 1985 book that created the term as well as Greene's 2001 update. I get that the term is not useful to everyone, but if one is going to apply the term to some schools, then all schools included in the books have equal claim to it.

Like Vermont. Peer school.

Did you consider that William & Mary was listed as a Public Ivy in the Public Ivy book?
Your other points have no basis either. Gender balance at William & Mary is the same as the national average and lower than schools like UNC and Emory. Overall enrollment has gone up 10% since 2010 and undergraduate enrollment has increased by 6% over that period. You didn't get anything right.
Well, to be fair W&M is not on those Emory's or even UNC's level. And I can say the same about UMD and UVA. I just don't understand the constant comparison, they are not peer schools.
