I also found that quite amusing. Seems like this comes up on both the UVA and W&M boards. I agree that it is probably related to the Governors proclamation. As a side bar, some years ago I was looking at moving to Wisconsin. I can’t tell you how many school officials told us how progressive and difficult their schools would be compared to “those southern schools” like we were from some third world country. They told us we would probably have a hard time keeping up. It was quite a hoot especially given the fact that the reason I did not move were not as good as the one we were in at the time (IMO). I guess it is not unlike someone thinking that they will be mugged immediately after arriving in New York City.
