W&M's basically a top liberal arts college with a bunch of unwieldy appendages, tacked on by academic empire-builders over the centuries, weighing it down. Rationally planning an entire institution from scratch, as Jefferson did, clearly offers some advantages. I think W&M's a little better in its core strength - undergraduate liberal arts - but for everything else, Cavs win. -- "Hige sceal þe heardra, heorte þe cenre, mod sceal þe mare, þe ure mægen lytlað."
