There is alot of misinformation by agents from other schools that are circulating mis infomation about VT . Especially from UNC. This makes PUTIN look like a rookie. They are circulating it on all platforms and folks read that stuff and react immediately. 1. VT is the FLAGSHIP UNIVERSITY of the COMMONWEATH 2. We own the Northern Virginia Market and several campuses 3. We are the largest university in the state with largest enrollment total and largest R&D effort in the commonwealth 4. We have corporate ties with some of the largest corporations in America AMAZON and BOEING. 5. we have an avid fan base that is SEC level and travels and sells out venues. (we have the record for FED EX Field Guess what we beat the ACC blue bloods in their pet tourney the ACC basketball tournament So, we need to stop feeling sorry, get aggressive, reply with passion against those naysayers. DOnt think bad about your own institution. (or you just a external fan)
