UW's surge in the academic world is largely a function of its QS world rankings, which focuses on a few variables that work well for Washington. But those same rankings tell me I should choose ASU over Dartmouth and has schools like Arizona pegged above schools like UVa or Vanderbilt; so, depending on who you are and what you value, that's either fubar or gold Jerry, gold.YellowSnow said:

I generally think private schools and out of state tuition are a waste of money unless there is some slam dunk ROI and you've got @creepycoug kid's level academis prowess.
UW is quite elite in some key areas, like comp. sci and biotech, and I'm proud of that as an alumnus. But as serious adult talk in the real world, outside of things like that, I don't think it matters. Haie has a lot of good fun with it, but the UW and UO history major are going to be treated pretty equally and you're not going to convince me anybody knows whether one received a better education than the other.
I also try and remember that it's harder to get into UO, OSU, WSU, UA and ASU now than it was for me to get into UW when I did, and a lot of the things that make UW stand out now were non-existent when I graduated. So for a lot of us, walking around with academis superiority boners makes about as much sense as it did for Jimmy Lake ... or Mahler himself, who tells Twatter that he didn't finish community college.
Turning it around: UW will typically trail (by a lot) Cal, UCLA and Michigan, and by less, Illinois, Wisky, UNC CH and UT. Hell, there are more than a few rankings (including US News) that has Florida ranked higher than UW. Do I think those schools are better, much less a lot better, than UW, or more ridiculously, that those kids are getting a better education than they would at UW? No, I don't.
It's suck-my-dick week. Which means everyone is on @haie alert and the fur and the feathers are flying.

I was going to say. If you grow up in Oregon and go to UO over Oregon State you are legally retarded and should just go get a full time caregiver.BennyBeaver said:

You are smart AF to do UW undergrad + JD so I give you a pass, but when it comes to these things you can't live in the past.creepycoug said:

And the reality is UW was really hard to get into when I went there, and it's extremely hard now. They want to be Berkeley. Doesn't matter that they aren't.
It's a different game than Oregon and the state schools.
But the state schools still do a pretty good job and get what needs to be taught in 2022.
Oregon just puts out shit and tells their residents to eat it. -
I love Westy he has swag above his pay grade and makes clutch plays. He might be the next iteration of UW TE that we don't think that much of then goes on to play a decade in the league

When I was eight or nine years old my dad told me if Oregon was the only school I could get into he wouldn’t pay for it.YellowSnow said:

I told all the Glovelets the same thing Westovers dad told him.
The deal was they already knew they’d never go there cuz I raised them the right way.
There no such thing as Duck Hate Week in my house. It’s Duck Hate Lifetime.
