God, this is stupid.  Einstein was [b]faculty [/b]at Princeton, for christ's sake.  Einstein.

You might be interested that Einstein was never on faculty at Princeton. He did research at an affiliated research lab on campus. He never lectured in English, there was always a German translator. Just something interesting.[/quote]

Oh... yikes. That's embarrassing. The lab - Institute for Advanced Study - is not affiliated with Princeton, it just happens to be located in Princeton, NJ.

Columbia still loses vast majority of cross admits :) [/quote]

Yale vs. Princeton: 61-39
Princeton vs. Columbia: 64-36

More than a third of the admitted students choose Columbia over Princeton in the RD round, which doesn’t even reflect the ED students who had Columbia as their absolute #1 choice. That’s not “the vast majority,” and you should stop conflating everything. It makes you sound pathetic and desperate. [/quote]

Let’s just say even for people who hate Columbia, Columbia is still their secret dream school. Donald J Trump “hated” Columbia as a disgraceful liberal institution. Yet, he sent Barron to Columbia Preparatory in hopes of living every man’s dream of attending Columbia through his son. [/quote]

Quite ironic to say this after your sarcasm, but I’m sure most of these Columbia bashers on DCUM and beyond are people with ties to UPenn or UChicago. They tend to resent Columbia for its current momentum and being closer to HYPSM than to the next rung of schools. It’s definitely not an NU, Duke, etc. booster as bashing Columbia won’t help them.
