College Tour

I should remind you that I work in Higher Education and love visiting college campuses. I try to stop and visit noteworthy campuses as much as I can when traveling (Pepperdine has been the most impressive thus far). 

I went to a wedding down in Roanoke this weekend and on the the drive back yesterday we drove (a touch out of the way) to visit Virginia Tech. I have never been to Tech and figured I’ve lived it’s VA for over 3 years it’s time. After about 2 hours at Tech we made our way north with another stop at UVA. 

The visit to UVA (the “flagship” public university in the state) got me curious just how many flagship campuses I’ve been to. Thanks for the list wikipedia (note that Texas as 2…of course they do). I’m shocked I’ve only been to 8/51 (bolded). Looks like I have a new life goal!
