Washington & Lee vs Wm. & Mary vs UVA vs Georgetown - Political Science

It’s interesting how this thread has meandered way off topic about which of the schools would be the best educational opportunity for the OP.

To the degree that diversity is a factor in a quality educational experience, I’ll just point out that the 20 African American students that W&L brought in last year, as pointed out by an earlier poster, represent 4.2% of the incoming class because W&L is so small. The other 3 universities under consideration each have an African American component which is 6-7% of the overall student population. It’s not like any of these 4 is a beacon of diversity or even representative of the overall population of the country in general.
