He's speaking for the Blacksburg area culture, not VT's. The culture he


talks about is white, protestant and southern. It demands that the wife join in certain social circles in town, many of which exist in churches. It demands deference to the local area and local kids. It doesn't react well to people who have different personalities, especially those Yankees. It also demands that one love the NRV and pledge allegiance to it and those born in the area like they were born there themselves.

So, yeah. Seth was not a good fit. Buzz kind of was except that his allegiance was in Texas and his framework was national, and not to the local area. Mike Young was born there and is probably a good Methodist boy. So he's gonna work out.
