Williams? It seems to do a really good job of getting its grads wherever they want to go.


Isn't Williams like top 5 LAC?
https://collegescorecard.ed.gov/school/?168342-Williams-College

Outcome Isn't impressive at all compared to it's ranking. Seems overrated.


exactly - where grads from slacs like bowdoin and wesleyan seem to revel in being unknown to masses and their school’s quirkiness, Williams alumns are the opposite - and demand being compared to the ivies - the few dozen I’ve met have been tiring and obnoxious in this regard - rest assured, no ivy is comparing itself to Williams!

A pox on you for making me read your entire quasi-paragraph; mine eyes hath seen one too many train wrecks, and yet I cannot look away.



ahh - perchance we have a literate Williams grad - in our midst??

It's ranked only 53 when most of the major metrics are at T20 T25 level.

So it's actually "the most underrated school popular among the dc metro area crowd"


Stop already.

Precisely. VT .


Huh? Talk about an example of someone whose kid must have been rejected. VT is exactly the opposite of the description above. But, you knew that.
