<p>The last two posters appear to be confusing "Wesleyan College" (a women's college in Georgia) with "Wesleyan University" (a top-rated LAC in Connecticut). </p>
<p>Happens regularly.</p>

Here's another story that has a quote from Wesleyan's president, saying that they will also decline to furnish the peer assessment, the second prong of the "boycott."

<p>Now that is newsworthy. <em>two thumbs up</em></p>
<p>My nephew at Wesleyan says he gets "You go to Wesleyan? I thought that was a girls' school".</p>
<p>Oops. mea culpa. Two Trinities, two Cornells, and now two Wesleyan's to keep straight!</p>
<p>Two Wesleyans ? Are you kidding ?</p>

<li>Virginia Wesleyan College</li>
<li>West Virginia Wesleyan College</li>
<li>North Carolina Wesleyan College</li>

<ul>
<li>Ohio Wesleyan University</li>
<li>Illinois Wesleyan University</li>
<li>Dakota Wesleyan University</li>
<li>Nebraska Wesleyan University</li>
<li>Texas Wesleyan University</li>

<p>Corbett, before speaking about the "confusion" of other posters, it may help to read WHAT they post, and the linked information for that matter. Clicking on the link I posted or reading that the school "Chartered as the Georgia Female College on December 23, 1836" is not the CT-based Wesleyan.</p>
<p>The link that you posted was clearly about the Georgia-based Wesleyan. However, this thread was just as clearly started to discuss the Connecticut-based Wesleyan. </p>
<p>At least some of the participants in this thread were in fact confusing the two schools (as acknowledged in post #24 above). So it seemed appropriate to point out the distinction.</p>
<p>What confusion?</p>
<p>There is only one Wesleyan where you can find Me & Bobby Mcgee Eaterie.</p>
<p>Freedom's just another word for nothing left to loose
Nothing, and that's all that Bobby left me, yeah
But feeling good was easy Lord when he sang the blues
Hey feeling good was good enough for me, hmm-mm
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee.</p>
<p>That would be Ohio Wesleyan, right?</p>
<p>Sorry, I was talking about the one in CT.</p>
