Yes, there’s no question that WVU, like most state flagships (NY doesn’t really have a single flagship), is large, and has a wide range of students. In general, it reflects a different philosophy of education than the elite private colleges have, and that to some extent Binghamton has: Instead of saying “We only take the best of the best”, they say, “We offer opportunity to everyone from the best of the best to the middle of the middle.” There was nothing wrong with that until USNWR came along and effectively decided that the “middle” kids would give the “best” kids dumbness cooties if they went to the same college, so any college that let “middle” kids in the door had to be downgraded.
