I agree with leegee ... for example, UNC is 1789 (& I should know--went there for grad school). http://collegeprowler.com/rankings/overall-experience/top-oldest-colleges/

I'm from Virginia and I thought UVA would make the list... didn't realize there were so many that came before. I did get William & Mary, though. A lot of my friends went there.
