Vandy is a better school than Tulane, no question, but Tulane is moving up the ladder. They are doing great work over there.

I'd imagine most high school seniors would lean heavy to NOLA in the NOLA v Nashville debate, though.

Is Nashville really that superior to NOLA?

It's much safer( which isn't saying much). You'd have a blast in either if you were in college.

I get that Nashville is much cleaner and more scenic, but NOLA still seems cooler.

Obviously, Vandy is the better school.

LucasP is a troll account fwiw.

He's actually pretty good at it though.

Nashville is fun but Nola is on another level in that respect.

Idk if you're trolling, but Nashville is comically overrated on TD. It's not that great.

I didn't care for it, and I really wanted to like it after hearing so much. Austin isn't perfect but you can at least find different types of music within walking distance, Nashville was like every bar was owned and run by the same douche.
