[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This list is not based in reality. I graduated from Cornell and hated it. Dark, cold and depressing. Unfriendly students. The only list that matters is the US News and World Report on top National Colleges/Universities. The top 5 Public’s for combination of excellent education, school spirit, athletics, college atmosphere, and job/internships. 1 - UCLA 2 - UC Berkeley 3 - Michigan 4 - UVA 5 - University of Florida, UC Santa Barbara, and UNC As my family is not in CA - the three are Michigan, UVA and University of Florida A Cornell alumni[/quote] +1 I was just about to post that this peer list has a huge bias against public universities which are the actual power houses in promoting access to quality education, social mobility, academic performance (collaborative well cited research) and popular team sports. There was a post way back with some attempt to measure academic performance internationally and the public universities did way better. [/quote]
