If we're going to discuss something like academic rankings, can we leave the anecdotal talking points out of it? For folks so concerned about where ODU is as an institution, y'all forget your small friend group isn't enough data to prove anything. And I really don't get the obsession with Runte. ODU has been a safety school since I was in high school in the late 90s/early 00s. Easy to get in, hard to get out of is nothing new here. None of that was any different when Runte was here.

And if you're just upset with them promoting the school's diversity, affordable education and the amount of first-generation college graduates we produce (all things that should be bragged about, as it serves the public good in a real world environment), I don't think you're actually paying attention to their press releases or advertising.
