This is a very good thing for us!
 
This is really good news! It is as if a AAA baseball team was upgraded to a major league team. VCU has come a long way in the last 20-30 years. As these good things happen to VCU, our degrees gain more value. We must, however, increase our endowment and increase the number of chairs in each school. When these two things happen, we are well on our way to the next level. I am sure that President Rao will do the necessary things to get us there.
