[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless you're a huge sports fan, there is zero reason to attend Duke over Harvard.[/quote] Engineering would be one reason. And that does tend to be where a lot of smart boys go these days. And Harvard is nothing in that field. Whereas Duke has a solid engineering program. Also, these days, many employers are wary of this generation of Harvard grads - lazy, entitled, privileged. Outside of investment banking, I don't think there's much of a career bonus for going to Harvard anymore compared to a perfectly good and prestigious school like Duke. And like it or not, lots of students like going to the "big game" with all the hoopla that goes with it. As a grown adult, I would choose living in Cambridge for four years over Durham every day of the week. But it's not at all unreasonable for students to choose Duke over Harvard in 2026 for their college experience. [/quote]
