[ *] Where else were you accepted: Washington and Lee University</p>
<p>In the above post, Mr. Randolph forgot to meant his chairmanship of the “WASPs for Cantor” organization, and his leading role in “Fountainhead: The Play”.</p>
<hr>
<p>Speaking of Washington and Lee U., I found this actual post from a parent of a female W&L student over on their thread:</p>
<p>"While she is Southern, Episcopalian, and the product of a very selective private school education; she does not drink every night, wear her Barbour coat every day, nor wear her pearls to class!</p>
<p>Washington and Lee is not for everyone, nor should it intend to be. It is a fine, venerable, highly selective Southern liberal arts college with great history and tradition. Some may abhor it’s perceived lack of diversity; we celebrate it!"</p>
<p>It is reportedly a place where some students call the minority students “Johnsons” after the Johnson scholarships that the university offers.</p>
<p>Also, it is worth noting that the southern Virginia private school system was partly created as a result of state-sponsored massive resistance against desegregation in the 1950s and 1960s. Some public school systems actually closed down for a period of time, and the state provided vouchers to students who could afford the newly created whites-only private schools, until they were overturned in court.</p>
<p>I’ve definitely posted about massive resistance on this forum before. [url=<a href=“Google”>Google]Google[/url</a>] Many people are not aware of it. Your post was super funny by the way.</p>
<p>Okay Charlieschm I am now reading this thread soley to see if you and UVAorBust get into UVA: Very funny.</p>
