I think it's that as long as WMATA is putting a 21st stop in NoVa, it should probably think seriously about putting just one in one of the most recognizable neighborhoods in the city, and near one of its most prominent universities. I'd say this has relatively little to do with "entitled Hoyas"--free buses give Gtown students ways out. It's the problems people have getting in that are galling.

We're Hoyas - don't you realize how special we are! You compare Georgetown to all of Northern Virginia as as basis for demanding a Metro stop? Talk about delusions of grandeur! Potomac Yard station will be built on a pre-existing line. What pre-existing line runs anywhere near your campus? Wah, wah, wah. We’re Hoyas - don’t you realize how special we are!

What pre-existing line runs anywhere near your campus?
