<p>I go to Pepperdine - not sure about villanova. But I can tell you that pepperdine recently moved up to #53 in US world and news report for 2010. At Pepperdine you will have to attend convocation - (14ish per semester). There are many different options to fulfill this and most students go to Wednesday morning chapel.</p>
<p>Also, there aren’t many classes that meet on Wednesdays which makes it nice. Most of my friends also have no classes on Wednesdays.</p>
