[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Berkeley has lost it’s uniqueness in the last 10-12 years. It’s a great school. One of the best. The students there are driven and smart. But if you had a parent that attended or anyone else Pre-2010-ish,, you’d know it used to be a much more of unique experience. I have a friend who has said they are struggling to Hire talent in certain departments b/c of this.  It’s no longer “fun and quirky”. I don’t think it will be long before it’s much more than a glorified state school given the shift [/quote]
Yea it's lost some of its luster, UCLA is more selective now a days. Could say Georgetown and maybe Cornell lost some spark too...MAYBE.

Conversely UCLA could move up to borderline/Elite and Maybe NYU is a few years...MAYBE. [/quote]

Interesting point. Frankly, I see it moving the same way as Berkeley. They are struggling to maintain distinct culture identity that put them where they are now. Not sure how to fix this. I think the east coast schools have done a better job not falling prey to this[/quote]
