Virginia Tech has plenty of support from Billionaires alums in High Tech

world. By the way, UVA is a phenomenal school, I have many connections to that university that may be the best public school in the country. That said Virginia Tech undergraduate degree alums have made slightly more money than UVA undergraduates for a long time. Virginia Tech gets a very false reputation because of its location, and our state is horrible on our interstate system. We are a triangular shaped state and we don’t have an interstate road at the bottom of the triangle. So Richmond and Hampton Roads businesses are as close or a whole closer expanding in North Carolina and Maryland. Not having an interstate highway from Richmond the capital to Roanoke really crushes the potential of Virginia Tech, but the Byrd Road system lives on, and all we do is widen the top of the triangle. 😡
