Congrats! DC graduates this week and will be sad to leave. We are sad too, because we've loved visiting there.

Davidson isn't exactly a regional college. It's a highly selective nationally recognized slac. It's like calling Harvard and Yale provincial colleges in the middle of NE. It says: get around a little, you've led a sheltered life.

That "little regional college" is ranked 10th liberal arts college in the country, ahead of Smith, Vassar, Wesleyan, Oberlin (have you heard of those?).


Yes, because they aren't little colleges in the south. They are little colleges in the NE and Ohio.

It's amazing the places people will consider once the Ivies and their own state publics have turned them down.


We are turning the whole country blue so we send our kids to red state. It's part of our master plan.

Duke, Rice, Vanderbilt, Davidson - yeah, it's an academic wasteland south of the Mason=dixon line



Those aren't the schools, I meant --- UGA, UF, Alabama, Tennessee, South Carolina -- decent schools, but not the caliber that usually impresses posters here.

Who cares what impresses random people on DCUM?


good point! I have been humbled myself by DC's results this year. Not so judgmental anymore.
