That's true. WV State was also founded as a Land Grant institution due to it's historically black student body and the fact that in the 1800s racial segregation was the norm. Since integration, they have maintained some of the Land Grant functions, but the vast majority of them are performed by WVU.

I'd have to agree with you on that. State should be more than what it is, but its still a special place as far as history and culture is concerned.
