We were fortunate to visit William and Mary college. The college has tradition and class. The college has so much history and it was well preserved.

You must visit this campus and experience the history and archetecture and vibrancy of this college. It is beautiful, and knowing several graduates from the past and more recently, you would hear the same comment that they received a quality education and loved being part of an historic community.
