[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NJ and NY didn't need a state flagship the way Wisconsin did. They have ivies. [/quote] This is so stupid. A flagship is for the top half of the class and is reasonably priced for state residents.[/quote] That’s what Ivies were, in the northeast, in 1955. They've gradually abdicated that role to chase rankings, and the northeastern flagships are now picking up the slack, but they’re decades behind the Midwestern flagships. [/quote] 86% of kids attend college within 500 miles of where they live. That’s today…it was higher in previous years. If the Ivy schools and all the other top east coast privates were 500 miles from Madison, then the school would likely have developed differently because top students would have had tons more options.
