underrepresented?

<p>I was wondering if Rhode Island is an underrepresented state? Especially at schools like Vanderbilt, Emory, Johns Hopkins, etc.</p>

<p>I wouldn’t say that. I feel like wherever you go, people will always say things about your state and where you came from. I live in Jersey, and obviously people associate me with the Jersey shore which is NOTHING like where I live. Brown University is in Rhode Island- it has an ivy league school, so obviously it has to have something going for it.</p>
