[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, as a former professor, I can tell you a) that the job market is so bad that there are fabulous professors even at less-distinguished schools and b) that the "world-class" profs at Ivies may have been hired for their brilliant research and still suck at teaching and mentoring undergrads. [/quote] Also a former professor. That is true but the big difference between Harvard and WVU is the peer group.[/quote] True, but c'mon, there's a lot of daylight between Harvard and WVU. USNWR ranks Harvard as the #2 university and WVU as #168. And that doesn't include the SLACs; include them and the distance between Harvard and WVU gets even bigger. So WVU does not really belong in the same conversation. You don't think a Harvard-eligible student can find a peer group anywhere outside of the Ivy League?[/quote]
