But FYI -- misinterpreting EE-BO's post does not happen because of a lack of familiarity with UT. I've been in TX for 12 years, 4.5 of them in the Austin area. It was a poorly worded sentence.

There's a difference between having friends and associates all over the country and having close relationships where you end up spending a lot of time with those people and even visit those schools regularly. It's a very insular and small world EW talks about. It's not the final word on all things that go on at a particular campus, but if you're part of that scene you've got a pretty good idea of how things are in that little part of the world.
