<p>An agenda?? Anti-U Michigan??</p>
<p>Here is what I posted earlier in this thread in comparing U Michigan to U Virginia:</p>
<p>"In terms of prestige, it’s six of one, half-dozen of the other…</p>
<p>The reality is that top students will do very well from either and you can have an exceptional experience from either. As public universities go, both take large numbers of out-of-state stuents (about 33% at each). Both have strong undergraduate programs across a wide range of fields and alumni of each feel passionately about their school.</p>
<p>For the record, in USNWR rankings dating back to 1991, U Virginia has ranked ahead of U Michigan in every year."</p>
<p>and this is followed by the usual litany of data comparisons. </p>
<p>You U Michigan guys/gals are so sensitive. For nearly 20 years, U Michigan has never…not once…ranked ahead of U Virginia and yet I accord the school equal prestige in my opening sentence. It’s not I who have an agenda…</p>
